Physiological effects of water stress on young corn plants

Creator:

Barlow, Edward William Ross

Abstract:

Laboratory experiments were used to investigate the mechanism of plant response to water stress by determining the sensitivity of leaf elongation, photosynthesis and transpiration in young corn plants to a decrease in leaf water potential. In initial experiments, 9 day old corn plants were grown at soil water potentials of...

The influence of ectomyorrhizae on drought tolerance characteristics of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.] Franco) seedlings

Creator:

Dosskey, Michael G.

Abstract:

Douglas-fir seedlings were inoculated with different species of ectomycorrhizae-forming fungi in order to test the concept that ectomycorrhizae enhance the drought tolerance of seedlings and to investigate the mechanisms responsible for this effect. Seedlings were transplanted at age 6 to 8 weeks into pots containing pasteurized loam soil and inoculated...
