Sperry, John S. | Cavitation fatigue - the weakening of cavitation resistance of xylem and its reversibility | Xylem function is essential for the growth and survival of higher land plants. Xylem must not only be efficient under favorable conditions to facilitate high rates of stomatal conductance and carbon uptake, but it should also remain functional under drought conditions, when water potential (Ψ) dro... | Cavitation fatigue; Drought; Pit membrane | 2003 |

Linton, Matthew J. | Hydraulic conductivity, xylem cavitation, and water potential for succulent leaves of agave deserti and agave tequilana | 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 w... | Transpiration; Dehydrated; Drought | 2001 |

Hultine, Kevin; Sperry, John S. | Transpiration and hydraulic strategies in a piñon-juniper woodland | Anthropogenic climate change is likely to alter the patterns of moisture availability globally. The consequences of these changes on species distributions and ecosystem function are largely unknown, but possibly predictable based on key ecophysiological differences among currently coexisting species... | Drought; Hydraulic transport model; Juniperus osteosperma; Plant water use; Sap flux; Species distributions | 2008 |
