Water status, drought responses, and growth of Prosopis flexuosa trees with different access to the water table in a warm South American desert
(Springer, 2011-09)
Prosopis flexuosa trees dominate woodlands in the Central Monte Desert (Mendoza, Argentina), with <200 mm rainfall, exploiting the water table recharged by Andean rivers, and also growing in dunes with no access to the ...
Biophysical properties and functional significance of stem water storage tissues in Neotropical savanna trees
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2007-12)
Biophysical characteristics of sapwood and outer parenchyma water storage compartments were studied in stems of eight dominant Brazilian Cerrado tree species to assess the impact of differences in tissue capacitance on ...
Xylem water potentials of native shrubs from northeastern Mexico
(Almquist & Wilkesells, 2011)
Drought tolerance is associated with rooting depth and stomatal control of water use in clones of Coffea canephora
(Oxford University Press, 2005-07-01)
center dot Background and Aims Drought is a major environmental constraint affecting growth and production of Coffea canephora. Selection of C. canephora clones has been largely empirical as little is known about how clones ...

Physiological regulation and efficient xylem water transport regulate diurnal water and carbon balances of tropical lianas
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-02)
Tropical lianas deploy most of their leaves towards the top of the forest canopy, whereas trees exhibit a more stratified crown. Forest canopies are often exposed to hot and windy conditions, and how lianas cope with the ...
Estimation of stomatal conductance and stem water potential threshold values for water stress in olive trees (cv. Arbequina)
(Springer, 2019-07)
Many irrigation strategies have been proposed in olive orchards to overcome both increasing water scarcity and competition for water with other sectors of society. However, threshold values of stomatal conductance (gs) and ...
Water Relations and Foliar Isotopic Composition of Prosopis tamarugo Phil., an Endemic Tree of the Atacama Desert Growing at Three Levels of Water Table Depth
(Frontiers Media, 2016)
Prosopis tamarugo Phil. is a strict phreatophyte tree species endemic to the "Pampa del Tamarugal", Atacama Desert. The extraction of water for various uses has increased the depth of the water table in the Pampa aquifers ...
Paraheliotropism can protect water-stressed bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) plants against photoinhibition
(Elsevier GmbH, 2004)
In order to estimate the importance of leaf movements on photosynthesis in well-watered and water-stressed field grown bean cultivars (Arroz Tuscola (AT), Orfeo INIA (OI), Bayos Titan (BT), and Hallados Dorado (HD)), CO2 ...
Fisiologia e metabolismo foliar em duas variedades de videira sujeitas a um ciclo de défice hídrico e reidratação
(2015-01-01)
This work aimed to compare two grapevine varieties grown in Portugal, Syrah and Touriga Nacional, in terms of their physiological and biochemical behavior in response to a cycle of severe water stress followed by rehydration. ...
