Xylem hydraulic safety margins in woody plants: coordination of stomatal control of xylem tension with hydraulic capacitance (2009, positive): “However, the hydraulic resis- tance of leaves is substantial (Sack & Holbrook 2006) and dynamic over a daily time scale (Bucci et al. 2003; Brodribb & Holbrook 2004a; Woodruff et al. 2007), resulting in a substantial and variable transpiration-induced disequilib-*Correspondence author.”
New insight into leaf drought tolerance (2015, background): “Many studies have shown that leaf water potential at turgor loss point (ptlp) plays a key role in maintaining gas exchanges and growth rate under moderate water stress (Brodribb et al. 2003; Mitchell et al. 2008), but the”
Drought tolerance as predicted by leaf water potential at turgor loss point varies strongly across species within an Amazonian forest (2015, positive): “…tend to maintain critical processes, such as leaf hydraulic conductance, sto- matal conductance and photosynthetic gas exchange, under drier conditions (Cheung, Tyree & Dainty 1975; Abrams, Kubiske & Steiner 1990; Brodribb et al. 2003; Bartlett, Scoffoni & Sack 2012b; Guyot, Scoffoni & Sack 2012).”
Variation in hydraulic conductivity of mangroves: influence of species, salinity, and nitrogen and phosphorus availability (2006, background): “…factors that limit the hydraulic conductivity of trees have considered both intrinsic characteristics such as deciduous or evergreen habits (Brodribb et al. 2003, Choat et al 2005), and environmental factors such as nutrients (Harvey and Van der Driessche1997, Ewers et al. 2000, Hubbard et…”
Mechanisms of plant survival and mortality during drought: why do some plants survive while others succumb to drought? (2008, background): “Based on evidence for correlations between cellular desiccation limits and hydraulic transport limits (Brodribb et al., 2003), cellular drought tolerance may be as colimiting as hydraulics in determining plant physiological limits.”
Adjustment of structure and function of Hawaiian Metrosideros polymorpha at high vs. low precipitation (2007, methodology): “5 cm was cut underwater, and hydraulic conductance was measured using the LPFM with <2 kPa delivery pressure (Brodribb et al. 2003).”
Hydraulic properties and photosynthetic rates in co-occurring lianas and trees in a seasonal tropical rainforest in southwestern China (2009, background): “A decrease of hydraulic conductivity might be a signal for stomatal closure (Brodribb et al. 2003), which might result in maintaining stem and leaf water potential that insures the integrity of the water transport pathway upstream and avoids runway embolism.”
A Dynamic Optimality Principle for Water Use Strategies Explains Isohydric to Anisohydric Plant Responses to Drought (2018, background): “This is in addition to the effects of endogenous variables impacted by soil-root-plant processes such as soil, rhizosphere, and plant hydraulics (Sperry, 2000; Brodribb et al., 2003), osmoregulation and carbohydrate export from the leaf (Nikinmaa et al.”
Interrelations among pressure–volume curve traits across species and water availability gradients (2006, background): “This point corresponds more or less to the water potential at which stomates are closing or closed (Brodribb et al. 2003, Burghardt and Riederer 2003).”
Stomatal Closure during Leaf Dehydration, Correlation with Other Leaf Physiological Traits1 (2003, background): “A similar relationship between stomatal closure and stem cavitation was described in a group of tropical deciduous species (Brodribb et al., 2003), although a larger safety margin for the stem xylem meant that stomata were completely closed before a 50% loss of stem conductivity had occurred.”
Interspecific Relationships among Growth, Mortality and Xylem Traits of Woody Species from New Zealand (2010, background): “The trade-off between diameter and frequency is linked to several interacting mechanisms (Carlquist 1975): there is both a lower limit to the density of wood required to support a tree crown without buckling (Greenhill 1881; McMahon 1973; McMahon & Kronauer 1976), which would be approached if condui”
Leaf hydraulics. (2006, background): “The protection conferred will vary according to species, because species differ in whether whole leaves, petioles, and midribs are more (17, 22, 28, 49, 84, 105, 108, 125), equally (33), or less (32, 49, 83, 122) vulnerable to loss of conductance compared with the stem as leaf declines (and xylem te”
Changes in leaf hydraulic conductance during leaf shedding in seasonally dry tropical forest (2003, background): “, 2002b) while leaves were mesic (turgor loss at −1.3 MPa; Brodribb et al., 2002b).”
