Hydraulic architecture of leaf blades: where is the main resistance? (2004, background): “This partitioning of hydraulic resistances within the leaf blade would result in a much more efficient leaf functioning and would also considerably buffer the consequences of embolism formation in the vasculature ( Salleo et al. 2001 ).”
Changes in leaf hydraulic conductance during leaf shedding in seasonally dry tropical forest (2003, background): “Several studies have used dye injection (Salleo et al., 2001) and acoustic emissions in leaves (Milburn, 1973; Nardini & Tyree, 2000) to demonstrate that leaf veins, and particularly the tertiary vein network are susceptible to cavitation at only moderate water potentials.”
Structural determinants of leaf light-harvesting capacity and photosynthetic potentials (2006, background): “Thus, a large bottleneck in the venation system resides in the transition between vein orders or within the minor veins ( Sack et al. 2004 ).”
Leaf hydraulics. (2006, background): “Petioles with lower conductance take up dye into fewer vessels (25, 149), and dehydrated leaves take up dye into fewer minor veins in the network (83, 105, 124, 125).”
Differences in hydraulic architecture account for near‐isohydric and anisohydric behaviour of two field‐grown Vitis vinifera L. cultivars during drought (2003, background): “For this reason, whole branches instead of single shoots are usually used in excision experiments to ensure that the internal water reservoir will buffer the decrease in Yleaf (Salleo et al. 2001).”
The ‘hydrology’ of leaves: co‐ordination of structure and function in temperate woody species (2003, background): “Klamina in this study was measured for plants in moist soil, and it is possible that during drought Klamina may decline due to xylem cavitation (Kikuta et al. 1997; Nardini et al. 2001; Salleo et al. 2001), and may be more closely related to drought tolerance traits.”
Changes in leaf hydraulic conductance correlate with leaf vein embolism in Cercis siliquastrum L. (2003, background): “2, 3). Similar changes in the functionality of leaf veins have been already reported by Salleo et al. (2001) for another leguminous tree (Ceratonia siliqua L.), but this is the first experimental demonstration that vein embolism induce changes in leaf hydraulic conductance.”
The spatial pattern of air seeding thresholds in mature sugar maple trees (2005, background): “This agrees with the results of Salleo et al. (2000, 2001) and Brodribb & Holbrook (2003), which showed that cavitation was initiated at higher xylem tensions in stems than in leaves.”
Stomatal Closure during Leaf Dehydration, Correlation with Other Leaf Physiological Traits1 (2003, background): “Although it cannot be determined which part of the pathway from petiole to mesophyll is responsible for this decline in Kleaf, recent evidence from leaf acoustic emissions and dye infiltration have suggested that leaf minor veins are susceptible to cavitation (Salleo et al., 2001).”
Relations between stomatal closure, leaf turgor and xylem vulnerability in eight tropical dry forest trees (2003, background): “Detailed examinations of xylem vulnerability in the stems, petioles and leaves of a small selection of domestic temperate trees have revealed qualitative associations between the water potential found to induce xylem cavitation in stems (Nardini & Salleo 2000; Cochard et al . 2002) or leaves ( Salle”
