Xylem structure and hydraulic characteristics of deep roots, shallow roots and branches of walnut under seasonal drought

Abstract Background Despite the importance of root hydraulics, there is little research on the in situ dynamic responses of embolism formation and embolism repair of roots distributed in different soil depths in response to different water regimes. Results The vessel diameter, hydraulic conductivity...
