    Notes: Abstract Potted seedlings of four lines of maize and Sorghum of differing drought tolerance were subjected to a single soil drying cycle and were only rewatered when the plants showed the first signs of wilting. Other plants remained well-watered throughout the experimental period. As plant water potentials decreased in the unwatered plants of three of the lines investigated (Sorghum Piper and M35-1, V-4146 and maize Farz 27), endogenous levels of farnesol-like antitranspirants increased. Closure of stomata correlated well with the increase in endogenous antitranspirant. In the fourth line (Sorghum M35-1, V-4184), stomata did not close as the level of plant water stress increased, although leaf diffusion resistance of even the well-watered plants of this line was quite high. In this line, there was no consistent relationship between plant water stress and antitranspirant level or between stomatal behaviour and antitranspirant level. The involvement of farnesol-like antitranspirants in the control of stomatal behaviour in water-stressed plants is discussed.

    Notes: [Auszug] SIR,-I am not prepared to accept the whole of Lord Ashby's thesis, contained in his comments on the EEC pollution debate. He states, for instance, that "rabid conservationists need to be reminded sometimes that all pollution, except that from atomic weapons, is a by-product of processes which ...

    Notes: Abstract Optical diffusion coefficients, computed from ray-tracing in step-index slab guides with small continuous width perturbations, show an angular dependence which does not in general correspond well with the mechanical deformation spectrum. This contrasts with assumptions of a one-to-one correspondence in earlier reports. The results indicate that, in a fibre having a steep cut-off in the perturbation spectrum at high mechanical frequencies, the corresponding diffusion coefficient will have a significantly less pronounced cut-off. It is also shown that, in a cylindrical guide with diameter perturbations, the effect of skew rays is to further reduce the cut-off rate in the diffusion coefficient. An immediate consequence of these findings is that, in a perturbed fibre without appreciable cladding loss, the loss penalty (due to radiation) may be much higher than would be predicted by the mechanical spectrum alone. As a prelude to the above ray-tracing studies, a derivation of the optical diffusion equation is given from the analogy with Brownian motion.

    Notes: Abstract Potted maize seedlings were subjected to a single period of water stress. As the severity of water stress increased, measurements were made of leaf and root solute and water potentials, leaf diffusive conductance and leaf and root growth. After day four of the drying cycle, the rate of leaf extension and the development of leaf area were reduced. This reduction correlated well with a reduction in leaf turgor which occurred at this time. A significant accumulation of solutes in the root tips of the unwatered plants resulted in the maintenance of root turgor for the duration of the water stress treatment. Root growth of the unwatered plants was also maintained as the severity of water stress increased. A mild degree of water stress resulted in a net increase in root growth compared to the situation in well-watered plants. The significance of solute regulation and continued root growth for plants growing in drying soil is discussed.

    Solute accumulation in leaves and roots of woody plants subjected to water stress (1978)

    Notes: Summary Young seedlings of English Oak, Quercus robur L., and Silver Birch, Betula verrucosa Ehrl., were subjected to a number of consecutive periods during which water was withheld. During one 14-day period leaf-and soil-water potentials and leaf- and root-solute potentials of two groups of plants were sampled at noon of each day. One group of plants was watered every day while water was withheld from the other group. Solute accumulation in roots and leaves of oak seedlings subjected to water stress resulted in maintenance of turgor and high leaf conductance as the soil dried. In birch seedlings turgor was only maintained by stomatal closure at high soil water potential. Fourteen consecutive water stress cycles greatly reduced the growth of birch seedlings but had little effect on oak seedlings other than to alter root morphology. Water stress treatment resulted in the production of long thin roots in this plant. Stomatal behaviour in oak and birch seedlings during the 14-week stress period was consistent with observed changes in leaf water and solute potentials. Daily solute accumulation in oak leaves was presumably responsible for the maintenance of plant growth as water potentials fell.

    Variations among woody plants in stomatal conductance and photosynthesis during and after drought (1977)

    Notes: Abstract Acer saccharum, Fraxinus americana, Juglans nigra, Acer rubrum, Cornus amomum, and Ulmus americana seedlings were subjected to a soil drying cycle and then rewatered. At frequent intervals during the drying cycle and following rewatering, determinations were made of equilibrium photosynthesis rates, leaf conductances and leaf water potentials. As the drying cycle progressed, leaf water potentials decreased, stomata closed, and rates of transpiration and photosynthesis were reduced. Stomata of the two Acer species initially were more sensitive to water stress than were those of the other species. At low leaf water potentials, stomata of Juglans and Cornus were more open than those of the other species. Photosynthesis of Acer saccharum, Fraxinus and Juglans was significantly reduced by plant water stress, while photosynthetic water use efficiency of Cornus and Juglans was most unfavourable. Photosynthesis/leaf conductance ratios in water stressed leaves were higher in Fraxinus than in the other species. Immediately after rewatering, only limited stomatal opening occurred in Acer saccharum and Cornus with recovery of stomatal opening most protracted in Fraxinus and Ulmus. There was extended reduction of photosynthesis of all species as a result of the soil drying treatment. This effect was most significant in Acer saccharum and Juglans. Survival of plants on moist and dry sites is discussed in relation to stomatal control of transpiration and metabolic responses to water stress.

    Effect of Applied Abscisic Acid and Silicone on Water Relations and Photosynthesis of Woody Plants (1975)
    Canadian Science Publishing
    Details
    Publication Date: 1975-03-01
    Description: Fraxinusamericana and Pinusresinosa seedlings were treated with 7.5% silicone or 10−4 M ABA. Plants were watered on the day following treatment and then subjected to a soil drying cycle. At frequent intervals after the compounds were applied, transpiration, net photosynthesis, leaf water potential, and soil moisture percentage were determined for treated and control plants. Transpiration and photosynthesis of control plants decreased as the soil dried. Silicone was more effective than ABA in reducing water loss of both species, and was much more effective on Pinus than on Fraxinus. Although silicone had a very positive effect on the water potential of Pinus, photosynthesis of treated plants was greatly reduced with rates of treated plants never exceeding those of control plants. As the drying cycle progressed rates of photosynthesis were higher in ABA-treated Pinus plants than in controls. ABA also significantly increased plant water potential and soil moisture percentage. In Fraxinus, as the drying cycle progressed, both ABA- and silicone-treated plants had lower water stresses than untreated plants. Rates of photosynthesis were higher than in untreated plants. The data indicated that film-forming antitranspirants may be unsuitable for use with some gymnosperms, and that compounds which very significantly decrease transpiration are not necessarily useful and practical in the long term.
