| Title |
Relationship between xylem conduit diameter and cavitation caused by freezing |
| Date |
1999 |
| Description |
The centrifuge method for measuring the resistance of xylem to cavitation by water stress was modified to also account for any additional cavitation that might occur from a freeze-thaw cycle. A strong correlation was found between cavitation by freezing and mean conduit diameter. |
