The role of aquaporins in root water uptake. (2002, background): “Both the apoplastic and cell-to-cell paths mediate water transport in these tissues but the contribution of cell membranes to the latter path has long been dif®cult to estimate.”
Functional and Ecological Xylem Anatomy (2015, background): “Models based on the hydraulics of the soil-plant continuum have the potential for mechanistically linking canopy gas exchange capability with the architecture of the root system, and the characteristics of the soil (Jackson et al. 2000).”
Grapevine Rooting Patterns: A Comprehensive Analysis and a Review (2006, background): “So, it might be predicted that root systems in finetextured soils would be smaller and shallower and, conversely, those in coarse-textured soils deeper (Sperry et al. 1998, Jackson et al. 2000).”
Plant morphology and root hydraulics are altered by nutrient deficiency in Pistacia lentiscus (L.) (2006, background): “Some plant strategies to cope with drought, such as increased biomass allocation belowground, increased WUE or changes in root morphology (Ingestad and Ågren 1991; Jackson et al. 2000) have been described for nutrient-limited plants (Forde and Lorenzo 2001).”
A hydraulic model to predict drought-induced mortality in woody plants: an application to climate change in the Mediterranean. (2002, background): “While there are good practical reasons for this, recent results suggest that belowground processes may be the key to improve our understanding of water relations at scales from the plant to the whole biosphere (Jackson 2000, Jackson et al. 2000).”
Desert shrub water relations with respect to soil characteristics and plant functional type (2002, background): “The differences in moisture retention across soil texture may also have implications for plant rooting depth ( Jackson, Sperry & Dawson 2000 ).”
SAFETY FACTORS FOR XYLEM FAILURE BY IMPLOSION AND AIR-SEEDING WITHIN ROOTS, TRUNKS AND BRANCHES OF YOUNG AND OLD CONIFER TREES (2009, background): “…uptake, storage, and anchorage (Weiner & Thomas 2001) and have been identified as a weak link in the hydraulic continuum under drought conditions (Jackson et al. 2000). moreover, in conifers the tracheids are responsible for both support and conduction functions, leading to a potential tradeoff…”
Evidence of hydraulic lift in a young beech and oak mixed forest using 18O soil water labelling (2011, background): “…Mediterranean habitats (Jackson et al. 1999; Espeleta et al. 2004; Peñuelas and Fillela 2003), but also include cool temperate regions or seasonally dry tropical or subtropical habitats (see Jackson et al. 2000), as well as mesic habitats (Dawson 1993) where dry periods, albeit short, can occur.”
Rhizosphere: biophysics, biogeochemistry and ecological relevance (2009, background): “However, most of the water taken up by plants is transpired to the atmosphere in their attempt to assimilate CO2 (Jackson et al. 2000).”
How plants cope with water stress in the field. Photosynthesis and growth. (2002, background): “The interactions between root chemical signalling and changes in plant hydraulic conductivity during drought remain obscure and need further attention (Jackson et al., 2000).”
DEFINING A PLANT'S BELOWGROUND ZONE OF INFLUENCE (2003, background): “…that lateral roots extend farther from the stem base in coarse than in finer soils lends support to the suggestion made by Sperry et al. (1998) and Jackson et al. (2000) that plants of a given canopy size need larger root systems in coarse textured soils because such soils offer larger resistance…”
Defoliation alters water uptake by deep and shallow roots of Prosopis velutina (Velvet Mesquite) (2003, background): “In addition, deep roots are more susceptible to cavitation at less negative water potentials than shallow roots ( Jackson, Sperry & Dawson 2000 ).”
