A Proposed Drought Response Equation Added to the Münch-Horwitz Theory of Phloem Transport
Theoretical and experimental evidence for an effect of sieve tube turgor pressure on the mechanisms of phloem unloading near the root tips during moderate levels of drought stress is reviewed. An additional, simplified equation is proposed relating decreased turgor pressure to decreased rate kinetic...
