Stem Diameter in Relation to Plant Water Status

AUTOR(ES)

Klepper, Betty

RESUMO

An instrument containing a linear variable differential transformer was constructed to obtain continuous, nondestructive measurements of both short term changes in stem diameter and long term growth. In cotton plants, stem diameter, leaf water potential, and leaf relative water content are all closely related to net radiation at the top of the canopy. Leaves from the east and west sides of a plant show slight, but consistent differences in diurnal water potential patterns.
