Description:

To examine the hypothesis that stomatal behavior of plants in dry soil is influenced by a slow recovery from daytime water deficit, we studied the effect of repeated wetting of leaves during evening and night in Cryptomeria japonica seedlings grown in dry soil. After 7 and 10 days of leaf wetting treatment the midday leaf water potential decreased and the transpiration rate increased, respectively. Therefore, we suggest that rapid recovery from daytime water deficit could weaken the water conserving stomatal behavior that adapts to drought conditions in the roots. and T. Tange ... [et al.].
