Functional relationships between hydraulic traits and the timing of diurnal depression of photosynthesis
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-01-04)
The hydraulic coordination along the water transport pathway helps trees provide adequate water supply to the canopy, ensuring that water deficits are minimized and that stomata remain open for CO2 uptake. We evaluated the ...
Estimation of hydraulic parameters using electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and empirical laws in a semi-confined aquifer
(European Association of Geoscientists & Engineers, 2018-10)
The estimation of hydraulic parameters is critical for the rational use of water resources and the development of reliable hydrogeological models. However, the cost of such estimation can be very high and the data are ...
Root hydraulic conductivity and adjustments in stomatal conductance: hydraulic strategy in response to salt stress in a halotolerant species
(Oxford University Press, 2015-11)
Recent advances at the molecular level are introducing a new scenario that needs to be integrated into the analysis of plant hydraulic properties. Although it is not yet clear to what extent this scenario alters the current ...
Root hydraulic conductance, aquaporins and plant growth promoting microorganisms: A revision
(Elsevier Science, 2012-10)
A considerable number of soil and rhizospheric fungi and bacteria collectively known as plant growth promoting microorganisms (PGPM) have demonstrated ability to colonize plant roots and to provide benefits to their hosts. ...
Hydraulic differences along the water transport system of South American Nothofagus species: Do leaves protect the stem functionality?
(Oxford University Press, 2012-07)
Hydraulic traits were studied for six Nothofagus species from South America (Argentina and Chile), and for three of these species two populations were studied. The main goal was to determine if properties of the water ...
Natural variation of root hydraulics in Arabidopsis grown in normal and salt-stressed conditions
(American Society of Plant Biologist, 2011-03)
To gain insights into the natural variation of root hydraulics and its molecular components, genotypic differences related to root water transport and plasma membrane intrinsic protein (PIP) aquaporin expression were ...
Hydraulic architecture and photoinhibition influence spatial distribution of the arborescent palm Euterpe edulis in subtropical forests
(Oxford University Press, 2014-06)
Physiological characteristics of saplings can be considered one of the most basic constraints on species distribution. The shade-tolerant arborescent palm Euterpe edulis Mart. is endemic to the Atlantic Forest of Argentina, ...
The stem xylem of Patagonian shrubs operates far from the point of catastrophic dysfunction and is additionally protected from drought- induced embolism by leaves and roots
(Wiley, 2013-03)
Hydraulic architecture was studied in shrub species differing in rooting depth in a cold desert in Southern Argentina. All species exhibited strong hydraulic segmentation between leaves, stems and roots with leaves being ...
Hydraulic properties of Eucalyptus grandis in response to nitrate and phosphate deficiency and sudden changes in their availability
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2016-04)
Some herbaceous plant species have been shown to dynamically alter the hydraulic properties of their roots in response to sudden changes in the concentrations of mobile nutrients. These hydraulic adaptations effectively ...
Hydraulic conductivity and pore connectivity. Effects of conventional and no-till systems determined using a simple laboratory device
(Elsevier, 2019-03-01)
Soil hydraulic conductivity is a property that describes how easily water can move through a porous space and its determination is important because it controls many soil hydrological processes. The objectives of this work ...
