- <meta content="The question as to what triggers stomatal closure during leaf desiccation remains controversial. This paper examines
- characteristics of the vascular and photosynthetic functions of the leaf to determine which responds most similarly to
- stomata during desiccation. Leaf hydraulic conductance (Kleaf) was measured from the relaxation kinetics of leaf water
- potential (l), and a novel application of this technique allowed the response of Kleaf to l to be determined. These
- “vulnerability curves” show that Kleaf is highly sensitive to l and that the response of stomatal conductance to l is closely
- correlated with the response of Kleaf to l. The turgor loss point of leaves was also correlated with Kleaf and stomatal closure,
- whereas the decline in PSII quantum yield during leaf drying occurred at a lower l than stomatal closure. These results
- indicate that stomatal closure is primarily coordinated with Kleaf. However, the close proximity of l at initial stomatal
- closure and initial loss of Kleaf suggest that partial loss of Kleaf might occur regularly, presumably necessitating repair of
- embolisms." name="eprints.abstract" />

This paper examines
- characteristics of the vascular and photosynthetic functions of the leaf to determine which responds most similarly to
- stomata during desiccation. Leaf hydraulic conductance (Kleaf) was measured from the relaxation kinetics of leaf water
- potential (l), and a novel application of this technique allowed the response of Kleaf to l to be determined. These
- “vulnerability curves” show that Kleaf is highly sensitive to l and that the response of stomatal conductance to l is closely
- correlated with the response of Kleaf to l. The turgor loss point of leaves was also correlated with Kleaf and stomatal closure,
- whereas the decline in PSII quantum yield during leaf drying occurred at a lower l than stomatal closure. These results
- indicate that stomatal closure is primarily coordinated with Kleaf. However, the close proximity of l at initial stomatal
- closure and initial loss of Kleaf suggest that partial loss of Kleaf might occur regularly, presumably necessitating repair of
- embolisms.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270402.html">270000 Biological Sciences > 270400 Botany > 270402 Plant Physiology</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270400.html">270000 Biological Sciences > 270400 Botany</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Collections:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">UNSPECIFIED</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">2600</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Scholarly Publications Librarian</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">30 Nov 2007 15:34</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">11 Feb 2008 11:25</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=2600;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&eprintid=2600">item control page</a></p>
