Water Potential Increase in Sliced Leaf Tissue as a Cause of Error in Vapor Phase Determinations of Water Potential

Apparent photosynthesis of soybean plants as affected by changes in leaf water potential under field conditions

Comparing canopy temperature and leaf water potential as irrigation scheduling criteria of potato in water-saving irrigation strategies

Irrigation scheduling is important in irrigation water management. In this study, full (FI),deficit (DI) and partial root drying (PRD) irrigation strategies were applied in Agria and Ramospotato cultivars. Canopy temperature (CT) and leaf water potential (LWP) were assessed as thepotential tools for irrigation scheduling during the vegetative and productive growth stages.LWP varied between ca. ...

Light as a source of error in estimates of water potential by vapor equilibration.

A common method for estimating plant water potential is the vapor equilibration technique. This procedure, described originally by Archichovskij and Archichovskaja (1), and modified by Slatyer (4) and Kreeb (3), involves equilibration of plant tissue in the vapor phase above solutions of sucrose, mannitol, or salts of known concentration. Humidity jars or microdesiccators, containing the plant ...

Leaf water potential of differentially salinized plants.

Water and osmotic potential energies were measured with thermocouple psychrometers, at intervals during a 4-week period, in growing leaves of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris, var. Blue Lake) and barley (Hordeum vulgare, var. Liberty) plants having roots equally split between 2 differentially salinized nutrient solutions. The osmotic potentials of plants with half their roots in saline solutions were a...

synthesis of platinum nanostructures in two phase system

چکیده پلاتین، فلزی نجیب، پایدار و گران قیمت با خاصیت کاتالیزوری زیاد است که کاربرد های صنعتی فراوانی دارد. کمپلکس های پلاتین(ii) به عنوان دارو های ضد سرطان شناخته شدند و در شیمی درمانی بیماران سرطانی کاربرد دارند. خاصیت کاتالیزوری و عملکرد گزینشی پلاتین مستقیماً به اندازه و- شکل ماده ی پلاتینی بستگی دارد. بعضی از نانو ذرات فلزی در سطح مشترک مایع- مایع سنتز شده اند، اما نانو ساختار های پلاتین ب...
