Notas:
Potted 1.5-year-old apricot plants (Prunus armeniaca L.), growing under
polycarbonate glasshouse conditions with a cooling system, were subjected to
two successive water stress/recovery periods until pre-dawn leaf water
potential (Ypd) reached values between -2.0 and -2.5 MPa, during summer
1996. Control plants were irrigated daily to maintain the soil matric potential at
c. -20 kPa. Water stress limited plant growth and induced a significant
reduction in leaf area, caused by mature leaf abscission. The parallel
behaviour of leaf turgor potential and epinasty in stressed plants indicate...
