Pressure probe technique to study transpiration in phycomyces sporangiophores.
The growth equation for the rate of water uptake is augmented with a transpiration term. The obtained augmented growth equations are used to develop methodology which employs the pressure probe to measure transpiration rates from single plant cells. Experiments are conducted on the sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus to demonstrate this technique.
متن کاملDiurnal variation in the radial reflection coefficient of intact maize roots determined with the xylem pressure probe
Xylem pressure and its relative response to the imposition of an external osmotic stress (the so-called radial reflection coefficient) were recorded in roots of intact maize plants using the xylem pressure probe technique. Consecutive insertion of two probes into the same xylem vessel or into adjacent vessels of intact roots of plants exposed to high light intensity and salt stress under labora...
متن کاملIn vivo creep and stress relaxation experiments to determine the wall extensibility and yield threshold for the sporangiophores of phycomyces.
The pressure probe was used to conduct in vivo creep and in vivo stress relaxation experiments on the sporangiophores of Phycomyces blakesleeanus. The in vivo creep and in vivo stress relaxation methods are compared with respect to their utility for determining the irreversible wall extensibility and the yield threshold. The results of the in vivo stress relaxation experiments demonstrate that ...
متن کاملStomatal action directly feeds back on leaf turgor: new insights into the regulation of the plant water status from non-invasive pressure probe measurements.
Uptake of CO(2) by the leaf is associated with loss of water. Control of stomatal aperture by volume changes of guard cell pairs optimizes the efficiency of water use. Under water stress, the protein kinase OPEN STOMATA 1 (OST1) activates the guard-cell anion release channel SLOW ANION CHANNEL-ASSOCIATED 1 (SLAC1), and thereby triggers stomatal closure. Plants with mutated OST1 and SLAC1 are de...
متن کاملComparison of wheatgrass (A. intermedium) and tall wheatgrass (A. elongatum) in transpiration viewpoint
Transpiration, as one of the components of hydrological cycle, has not been paid enough attention yet, while it is necessary for sound utilization of rangelands, mostly located in the arid and semiarid regions. The comparison of the different kinds of rangelands species in terms of transpiration rates provides range managers the required information to achieve optimal forage production for a gi...
