Nonstomatal inhibition of photosynthesis at low water potentials in intact leaves of species from a variety of habitats.
Mesophyll resistance to CO(2) uptake was calculated from gas exchange data on intact leaves of 12 species of woody plants. Plants studied were native to habitats ranging from streamsides to deserts. Gas exchange measurements were made at light saturation and constant temperature to eliminate possible effects of light and temperature on estimates of mesophyll resistance. Cuticular transpiration ...
متن کاملResistance to water flow in the sorghum plant.
Knowledge of the location and magnitude of the resistance to water flow in a plant is fundamental for describing whole plant response to water stress. The reported magnitudes of these resistances vary widely, principally because of the difficulty of measuring water potential within the plant. A number of interrelated experiments are described in which the water potential of a covered, nontransp...
متن کاملOn the Resistance to Transpiration of the Sites of Evaporation within the Leaf.
The rates of transpiration from the upper and lower surfaces of leaves of Gossypium hirsutum, Xanthium strumarium, and Zea mays were compared with the rates at which helium diffused across those leaves. There was no evidence for effects of CO(2) concentration or rate of evaporation on the resistance to water loss from the evaporating surface ("resistance of the mesophyll wall to transpiration")...
متن کاملEffect of Soil Moisture and Phenylmercuric Acetate upon Stomatal Aperture, Transpiration, and Photosynthesis.
When sprayed on plant leaves, several compounds, notably phenylmercuric acetate (PMA), can induce stomatal closure (16, 17). Most of these investigations with PMA were carried out on detached leaves with petioles dipping in water; it was found that the stomatal closing markedly reduced transpiration, whereas photosynthesis was reduced to a lesser extent. In these experiments it was demonstrated...
متن کاملRelative importance of reradiation, convection, and transpiration in heat transfer from plants.
For a plant of average spectral properties and average diffusion resistance (2 sec/cm), diurnal variations in the energy dissipated by reradiation, convection, and transpiration have been explicitly calculated and plotted for certain environmental conditions as measured at St. Paul, Minnesota. These conditions represent the environments of characteristic types of days and of characteristic type...
