Hydraulic conductivity of roots
Hydraulic conductivity of roots
Radial and axial hydraulic conductivities are key parameters for understanding and modelling root water uptake. Despite their importance, there is limited experimental information relating to how the radial and axial hydraulic conductivities vary along roots growing in soil. Radial fluxes (m s–1) (left) and (minus) absolute xylem water potential (MPa) (right) along a 3-week-old root system of…
