| Title |
Hydraulic conductivity, xylem cavitation, and water potential for succulent leaves of agave deserti and agave tequilana |
| Date |
2001 |
| Description |
Axial hydraulic conductivity (Kh) was measured for fresh, dehydrated, and rehydrated leaves of the Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) leaf succulents, Agave deserti and Agave tequilana. Dehydration of leaves at 35(o)C for several hours caused Kh to decrease, with a 50% decrease occurring at a leaf water potential of -2.37 MPa for A. deserti and at -1.72 MPa for A. tequilana. |
