Effect of Abscisic Acid on Root Hydraulic Conductivity 1

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Reports of the effects of abscisic acid (ABA) on ion and water fluxes have been contradictory. Some of the confusion seems due to the interaction of ion and water transport across membranes. In these experiments root systems were subjected to hydrostatic pressures up to 5.0 bars to enable measurement of root conductance that was independent of measurement of osmotic potentials or ion fluxes.
