Sap flow as an indicator of transpiration and the water status of young apricot trees 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

The relationship between water loss via transpiration and stem sap flow in young apricot trees was studied under different
environmental conditions and different levels of soil water status. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse over a
2-week period (November 2–14, 1997) using three-year-old apricot trees (Prunus armeniaca cv. Búlida) growing in pots. Diurnal courses of leaf water potential, leaf conductance and leaf turgor potential also were
recorded throughout the experiment. Data from four days of different enviromental conditions and soil water availability have
been selected for analysis. On each of the selected days the leaf water potential and the mean transpiration rates were well
correlated. The slope of the linear regression of this correlation, taken to indicate the total hydraulic resistance of the
tree, confirmed an increasing hydraulic resistance under drought conditions. When the trees were not drought stressed the
diurnal courses of sap flow and transpiration were very similar. However, when the trees were droughted, measured of sap flow
slightly underestimated actual transpiration. Our heat-pulse measurements suggest the amount of readily available water stored
in the stem and leaf tissues of young apricot trees is sufficient to sustain the peak transpiration rates for about 1 hour.

Summary The effect of cold soils on stem sap flow, shoot gas exchange and water potential of Picea engelmannii (Parry) was investigated during the snowmelt period in the Medicine Bow Mountains, Wyoming, USA. Shoot net photosynthetic rates were higher in young trees (1.5–1.8 m in height) growing in cold soils (<3.5° C) associated with snowpack, than trees in warm soils until about 1500 h. Higher shoot photosynthetic rates of trees in cold soils continued after snow was removed and could not be completely explained by higher visible irradiance over highly reflective snow. Following soil warming higher photosynthetic rates were evident in these trees for five days. High nutrient availability associated with snowmelt may improve shoot nutrient status leading to higher gas-exchange rates during snowmelt. Shoot conductance to water vapor was higher in trees in cold soil until midday, when declining shoot conductance led to lower intercellular CO2 concentrations. Midday through afternoon shoot water potentials of trees in cold soils were similar or higher than those of trees in warm soils and the lower afternoon shoot conductances in cold soils were not the result of lower bulk shoot water potentials. Decline in net photosynthesis of trees in cold soils at 1500 h paralleled increases in intercellular CO2 concentrations, implying a nonstomatal limitation of photosynthesis. This scenario occurred consistently in mid-afternoon following higher morning and midday photosynthesis in cold soils, suggesting a carbohydrate feedback inhibition of photosynthesis. Diurnal patterns in stem sap flow of all trees (cold and warm soils) reflected patterns of shoot conductance, although changes in stem sap flow lagged 1–3 h behind shoot conductance apparently due to stem water storage. Total daily stem sap flow was similar in trees in cold and warm soils, although diel patterns differed. The morning surge and night-time drop in sap flow commenced 1–2 h earlier in trees in cold soils. Overnight stem sap flow was lower in trees in cold soils, possibly due to higher resistance to root water uptake in cold soils, which may explain lower predawn shoot water potentials. However, midday shoot water potentials of trees in cold soils equalled or exceeded those of trees in warm soils. Higher resistance to root water uptake in P. engelmannii in cold soils was apparently overshadowed by transpirational forces and significant shoot water deficits did not develop. 相似文献

In order to determine how flooding affects sap flow and hydraulic conductivity of the tolerant species, Campsiandra laurifolia, trees growing in a tropical seasonally flooded forest in Venezuela were studied. We hypothesized that trees respond to rising-waters
with a decrease in root-water absorption, caused by hypoxia, and stomatal conductance, and that this is reverted later on
through a process of acclimation that involves improvement in water absorption. We followed the seasonal changes, of trees
with the whole or part of the canopy exposed to air, in sap flow density, leaf stomatal conductance, leaf transpiration rate
and xylem water potential. The highest daytime sap flow density occurred at noon and its proportion relative to the yearly
maximum (drainage at falling-waters) was 41 (dry season), 15 (flooding by rising-waters for 2 weeks), 54 (2 months of flooding)
and 41% (6 months of flooding). Since at rising-waters dawn xylem water potential remained high, it became apparent that the
initial stages of flooding imposed a restriction to sap flow unrelated to water deficit. The decrease at rising-waters in
highest daytime sap flow density was due to reduced leaf-specific hydraulic conductivity, whereas the recovery observed 1.5 months
later was correlated to an increase in hydraulic conductivity, and attributed to acclimation. Sap flow density was highly
and positively correlated with radiation at all seasons but rising-waters; also, the relationship with air water vapor saturation
deficit was high and significant on dates other than at rising-waters. Results suggest that early flooding inhibited water
absorption by roots and that this inhibition was overcome later on at a higher water column through an acclimation process
involving the improvement of internal aeration by adventitious roots. 相似文献

Evaluating different soil and plant hydraulic constraints on tree function using a model and sap flow data from ponderosa pine 总被引:6,自引:3,他引:3
Relationships between tree size and physiological processes such as transpiration may have important implications for plant and ecosystem function, but as yet are poorly understood. We used a process‐based model of the soil–plant–atmosphere continuum to investigate patterns of whole‐tree sap flow in ponderosa pine trees of different size and age (36 m and ~250 years versus 13 m and 10–50 years) over a developing summer drought. We examined three different hypothetical controls on hydraulic resistance, and found that size‐related differences in sap flow could be best explained by absolute differences in plant resistance related to path length (hypothesis 1) rather than through different dynamic relationships between plant resistance and leaf water potential (hypothesis 2), or alterations in rates of cumulative inducement and repair of cavitation (hypothesis 3). Reductions in sap flow over time could be best explained by rising soil–root resistance (hypothesis 1), rather than by a combination of rising plant and soil–root resistance (hypothesis 2), or by rising plant resistance alone (hypothesis 3). Comparing hourly predictions with observed sap flow, we found that a direct relationship between plant resistance and leaf water potential (hypothesis 2) led to unrealistic bimodal patterns of sap flow within a day. Explaining seasonal reduction in sap flow purely through rising plant resistance (hypothesis 3) was effective but failed to explain the observed decline in pre‐dawn leaf water potential for small trees. Thus, hypothesis 1 was best corroborated. A sensitivity analysis revealed a significant difference in the response to drought‐relieving rains; precipitation induced a strong recovery in sap flow in the hypothetical case of limiting soil–root resistance (hypothesis 1), and an insignificant response in the case of limiting plant resistance (hypothesis 3). Longer term monitoring and manipulation experiments are thus likely to resolve the uncertainties in hydraulic constraints on plant function. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Stomatal oscillations have been reported in many plant species, but they are usually induced by sudden step changes in the environment when plants are grown under constant conditions. This study shows that in navel orange trees (Citrus sinensis) pronounced stomatal oscillations occur and persist under natural climatic conditions. METHODS: Oscillations in stomatal conductance were measured, and related to simultaneous measurements of leaf water potential, and flow rate of sap in the stems of young, potted plants. Cycling was also observed in soil-grown, mature orchard trees, as indicated by sap flow in stem and branches. KEY RESULTS: Oscillations in stomatal conductance were caused by the rapid propagation and synchronization of changes in xylem water potential throughout the tree, without rapid changes in atmospheric conditions. CONCLUSIONS: The results show marked stomatal oscillations persisting under natural climatic conditions and underscore the need to discover why this phenomenon is so pronounced in orange trees. 相似文献

Irrigation effects on daily and seasonal variations of trunk sap flow and leaf water relations in olive trees 总被引:9,自引:1,他引:8
Irrigation effects on whole-plant sap flow and leaf-level water relations were characterised throughout a growing season in an experimental olive (Olea europaea L.) orchard. Atmospheric evaporative demand and soil moisture conditions for irrigated and non-irrigated olive trees were also monitored. Whole-plant water use in field-grown irrigated and rain fed olive trees was determined using a xylem sap flow method (compensation heat-pulse velocity). Foliage gas exchange and water potentials were determined throughout the experimental period. Physiological parameters responded diurnally and seasonally to variations in tree water status, soil moisture conditions and atmospheric evaporative demand. There was a considerable degree of agreement between daily transpiration deduced from heat-pulse velocity and that determined by calibration using the Penman–Monteith equation in the field. Summer drought caused decreasing leaf gas exchange and water potentials, and a progressive increase in hydraulic conductance (stronger in non-irrigated than irrigated trees), probably attributable to modifications in hydraulic properties at the soil-root interface. Negligible hysteresis, attributable to low plant capacitance, was observed in the relationship between leaf water potential and sap flow. A proportional decrease in maximum daily leaf conductance with increasing vapour pressure deficit was observed, while mean daytime canopy stomatal conductance decreased with the season. As a result, plant water use was limited and excessive drought stress prevented. Non-irrigated olive trees recovered after the summer drought, showing a physiological behaviour similar to that of irrigated trees. In addition to physiological and environmental factors, there are endogenous keys (chemical signals) influencing leaf level parameters. Olive trees are confirmed to be economical and sparing users of soil water, with an efficient xylem sap transport, maintenance of significant gas exchange and transpiration, even during drought stress. 相似文献

Clusia minor L. is a C3-CAM species in which Crassulacean acid Metabolism (CAM) is induced, among other factors, by water deficit. We propose that
CAM induction by natural drought in C. minor shifts the sap flow pattern from daytime to a night-time one, and that the decreased osmotic potential due to increased malate
content in droughted plants aids in the increase in nocturnal sap flow. In order to test these hypotheses, we followed for
2 years the seasonal changes in parameters of water relationships and sap flow velocity in one single, freestanding tree growing
in Caracas. Leaf water and osmotic potential were measured psychrometrically, nocturnal proton accumulation by titration of
aqueous leaf extracts and sap flow density with thermal dissipation probes. Leaf water, osmotic and turgor potential remained
relatively high throughout the seasons. Nocturnal proton accumulation was nil under extreme drought or after frequent and
heavy rains, and high after moderate rainfall. Estimated malate and citrate concentrations contributed up to 80 and 60%, respectively,
of the value of osmotic potential. The shape of the daily courses of sap flow velocity varied seasonally, from mostly diurnal
during the dry season to mostly nocturnal after a short dry spell during the rainy season, when nocturnal acid accumulation
attained high values. There was a strong positive relationship between the proportion of the integrated sap flow courses corresponding
to the night and dawn [H+] (r
2 = 0.88). Increased nocturnal sap flow in the CAM stage of the tree of C. minor may be explained by a lower osmotic potential due to an increased acid concentration, together with increased stomatal aperture,
as suggested by increased nocturnal acid accumulation probably due to nocturnal CO2 fixation. 相似文献

Transpiration and stomatal behaviour of Quercus ilex plants during the summer in a Mediterranean carbon dioxide spring 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:2
Variations in the water relations and stomatal response of Quercus ilex were analysed under field conditions by comparing trees at two locations in a Mediterranean environment during two consecutive summers (1993 and 1994). We used the heat-pulse velocity technique to estimate transpirational water use of trees during a 5 month period from June to November 1994. At the end of sap flow measurements, the trees were harvested, and the foliage and sapwood area measured. A distinct environmental gradient exists between the two sites with higher atmospheric CO2 concentrations in the proximity of a natural CO2 spring. Trees at the spring site have been growing for generations in elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations. At both sites, maximum leaf conductance was related to predawn shoot water potential. The effects of water deficits on water relations and whole-plant transpiration during the summer drought were severe. Leaf conductance and water potential recovered after major rainfall in September to predrought values. Sap flow, leaf conductance and predawn water potential decreased in parallel with increases in hydraulic resistance, reaching a minimum in mid-summer. These relationships are in agreement with the hypothesis of the stomatal control of transpiration to prevent desiccation damage but also to avoid ‘runaway embolism’. Trees at the CO2 spring underwent less reduction in hydraulic resistance for a given value of predawn water potential. The decrease in leaf conductance caused by elevated CO2 was limited and tended to be less at high than at low atmospheric vapour pressure deficit. Mean (and diurnal) sap flux were consistently higher in the control site trees than in the CO2 spring trees. The degree of reduction in water use between the two sites varied among the summer periods. The control site trees had consistently higher sap flow at corresponding values of either sapwood cross-sectional area or foliage area. Larger trees displayed smaller differences than smaller trees, between the control and the CO2 spring trees. A strong association between foliage area and sapwood cross-sectional area was found in both the control and the CO2 spring trees, the latter supporting a smaller foliage area at the corresponding sapwood stem cross-sectional area. The specific leaf area (SLA) of the foliage was not influenced by site. The results are discussed in terms of the effects of elevated CO2 on plant water use at the organ and whole-tree scale. 相似文献

Xylem sap composition of spruce is influenced by several factors, such as the sampled organ, the sampling period, the availability of soil nutrients, and the soil water potential. Based on literature data and ongoing investigations carried out with adult trees, we present an overview on the main factors influencing xylem sap concentrations of Norway spruce. Direct measurements of nutrient fluxes in the xylem sap are then used to suggest a general scheme of mineral element cycling within adult trees. In Norway spruce (Picea abies Karst.), nutrient concentration in the xylem sap was higher in twigs and fine roots compared to the bottom of the trunk, the highest concentrations beeing observed in spring during the shoot elongation. Xylem sap concentrations were higher in spruce growing at nutrient rich sites than at poor sites. The combination of twig and trunk xylem sap analysis, together with xylem flow measurements in the trunk during the course of a vegetation period allowed the quantification of mineral fluxes via xylem sap flow in the trunk and twigs. These results were compared to gross mineral uptake measurements at the same site. Ca flux in the trunk xylem sap was lower than the gross uptake of Ca. Mg flux in trunk sap was approximately equivalent to Mg gross uptake whereas P and K fluxes in trunk sap were much higher than the gross uptake. Fluxes of Ca, Mg, K and P in the twig sap were much higher than that in trunk sap. Data suggest that internal cycling is responsible for a large part of the nutrient fluxes in the xylem sap of the crown. Xylem sap composition thus appears to be a tool which can complement other sources of information on mineral uptake and cycling in adult spruce 相似文献

Understanding how tropical rainforest trees may respond to the precipitation extremes predicted in future climate change scenarios is paramount for their conservation and management. Tree species clearly differ in drought susceptibility, suggesting that variable water transport strategies exist. Using a multi-disciplinary approach, we examined the hydraulic variability in trees in a lowland tropical rainforest in north-eastern Australia. We studied eight tree species representing broad plant functional groups (one palm and seven eudicot mature-phase, and early-successional trees). We characterised the species’ hydraulic system through maximum rates of volumetric sap flow and velocities using the heat ratio method, and measured rates of tree growth and several stem, vessel, and leaf traits. Sap flow measures exhibited limited variability across species, although early-successional species and palms had high mean sap velocities relative to most mature-phase species. Stem, vessel, and leaf traits were poor predictors of sap flow measures. However, these traits exhibited different associations in multivariate analysis, revealing gradients in some traits across species and alternative hydraulic strategies in others. Trait differences across and within tree functional groups reflect variation in water transport and drought resistance strategies. These varying strategies will help in our understanding of changing species distributions under predicted drought scenarios. 相似文献

Baobab trees (Adansonia, Bombacaceae) are widely thought to store water in their stems for use when water availability is low. We tested this hypothesis by assessing the role of stored water during the dry season in three baobab species in Madagascar. In the dry season, leaves are present only during and after leaf flush. We quantified the relative contributions of stem and soil water during this period through measures of stem water content, sap flow and stomatal conductance. Rates of sap flow at the base of the trunk were near zero, indicating that leaf flushing was almost entirely dependent on stem water. Stem water content declined by up to 12% during this period, yet stomatal conductance and branch sap flow rates remained very low. Stem water reserves were used to support new leaf growth and cuticular transpiration, but not to support stomatal opening before the rainy season. Stomatal opening coincided with the onset of sap flow at the base of the trunk and occurred only after significant rainfall. 相似文献

植物夜间液流的发生、生理意义及影响因素研究进展 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
植物夜间液流是指在夜间通过植物根、茎、叶的液流量。通过对不同物种、生境条件和生态系统的野外观测,发现植物普遍存在夜间液流现象。阐述了夜间液流的大小和组成,并从夜间液流的生理意义、影响因素以及生态水文效应方面对已有的研究进展进行了综述和分析。夜间液流占到全天液流量的比例一般为5%—20%。夜间液流包括夜间的茎干补水和夜间的蒸腾作用两个过程,但是目前没有确切的研究或技术将两个过程区分开来。虽然总体上夜间液流占全天液流量的比例较少,但是夜间液流的储水作用和蒸腾作用对植物生长有重要的生理意义:夜间储水作用提高了夜间茎干水势,减少了木质部栓塞化的形成,加强了植物对干旱环境的适应;而蒸腾作用在营养物质和氧气的运输,以及水力提升等方面有重要的作用。影响夜间液流的因素较多,气象因素是主要的环境驱动因子,而土壤水分对夜间液流的影响与生境有关;夜间液流还受到物种和生境条件的影响。由于夜间液流的发生,对不同尺度的生态水文过程产生了影响。未来的研究可进一步探索在全球气候变化条件下,夜间液流与植物生理过程的关系,定量评估夜间液流对生态水文过程的影响,深入研究夜间液流对环境变化的响应。 相似文献

Aims Nighttime sap flow of trees may indicate transpiration and/or recharge of stem water storage at night. This paper deals with the water use of Acacia mangium at night in the hilly lands of subtropical South China. Our primary goal was to reveal and understand the nature of nighttime sap flow and its functional significance.Methods Granier's thermal dissipation method was used to determine the nighttime sap flux of A. mangium. Gas exchange system was used to estimate nighttime leaf transpiration and stomatal conductance of studied trees.Important findings Nighttime sap flow was substantial and showed seasonal variation similar to the patterns of daytime sap flow in A. mangium. Mean nighttime sap flow was higher in the less precipitation year of 2004 (1122.4 mm) than in the more precipitation year of 2005 (1342.5 mm) since more daytime transpiration and low soil water availability in the relatively dry 2004 can be the cause of more nighttime sap flow. Although vapor pressure deficit and air temperature were significantly correlated with nighttime sap flow, they could only explain a small fraction of the variance in nighttime sap flow. The total accumulated water loss (E L) by transpiration of canopy leaves was only ~2.6–8.5% of the total nighttime sap flow (E t) during the nights of July 17–18 and 18–19, 2006. Therefore, it is likely that the nighttime sap flow was mainly used for refilling water in the trunk. The stem diameter at breast height, basal area and sapwood area explained much more variance of nighttime water recharge than environmental factors and other tree form features, such as tree height, stem length below the branch, and canopy size. The contribution of nighttime water recharge to the total transpiration ranged from 14.7 to 30.3% depending on different DBH class and was considerably higher in the dry season compared to the wet season. 相似文献

Hydraulic lift (HL) by tree roots in a young, broad-leaved, mixed temperate European forest was investigated during the 2008
growing season by injecting 18O-enriched soil water at a depth of 75–90 cm under drought conditions experimentally imposed in a rain-exclusion system. Based
on sap flow, leaf water potential, 2-D root distribution measurements, soil isotope profiles, and xylem water isotope composition,
water acquisition and use by two tree species, beech (Fagus sylvatica) and oak (Quercus petraea) was compared. We showed that, unlike oak, beech experienced a marked decrease in sap flow and predawn leaf water potential
with increasing soil drought. This behaviour was logical considering the shallower root system in beech than in oak. Six days
after 18O-labelling, we observed isotopic enrichment in the shallower soil layers. Since the intermediate soil layers did not display
any enrichment, our results clearly pointed to hydraulic lift by tree roots. The superficial enrichment that was observed
in the vicinity of oak trunks and the increase in the isotopic signature of xylem sap in the oak trees but not in the beech
trees confirmed the predominant role of oak in the hydraulic lift at our site. Even though facilitation for water acquisition
among species was not observed here, our results suggest a potential positive contribution of species like oak toward maintaining
species diversity in mixed forest ecosystems submitted to severe drought events. 相似文献

Resistance to Water Uptake in a Mature Citrus Tree 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Resistance to water uptake in an irrigated and a water-stressed22-year-old citrus tree was examined during 7 weeks. Frequentirrigation maintained the soil water potential of one citrustree between 0.0 and 0.016 MPa in the upper 0.6 m, whilethe other tree received no water for 44 d. Sap flow in the trunkswas measured once a week from dawn to dusk at hourly intervalswith a calibrated heat pulse technique. At the same time leafwater potential was measured on sunlit and shaded leaves. Sap flow in the stressed tree decreased with time at a higherrate than the water potential difference between soil and leaf,which implies an increase in the resistance of the transportsystem. Diurnal sap flow and diurnal leaf water potential ofthe irrigated and stressed trees were linearly related throughoutthe experimental period. The slope of the linear relationshipbetween flow and potential for both trees remained nearly constant,indicating that the resistance within the tree remained constant.The effect of drying appeared to be a progressive decline ofthe leaf water potential at zero flow (computed by linear regression).This was ascribed to a reduction of the transport of water inthe soil toward the roots.

Waterlogging is known to cause an increase in ethylene synthesis in the shoot which results in petiole epinasty. Evidence has suggested that a signal is synthesized in the anaerobic roots and transported to the shoot where it stimulates ethylene synthesis. Experimental data are presented showing that 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), the immediate precursor of ethylene, serves as the signal. Xylem sap was collected from detopped tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. VFN8). ACC in the sap was quantitated by a sensitive and specific assay, and its tentative chemical identity verified by paper chromatography. ACC levels in both roots and xylem sap increased markedly in response to waterlogging or root anaerobiosis. The appearance of ACC in the xylem sap of flooded plants preceded both the increase in ethylene production and epinastic growth, which were closely correlated. Plants flooded and then drained showed a rapid, simultaneous drop in ACC flux and ethylene synthesis rate. ACC supplied through the cut stem of tomato shoots at concentrations comparable to those found in xylem sap caused epinasty and increased ethylene production. These data indicate that ACC is synthesized in the anaerobic root and transported to the shoot where it is readily converted to ethylene. 相似文献
