Embolized conduits of rice (Oryza sativa, Poaceae) refill despite negative xylem pressure

Embolism reversal in rice plants was studied by testing the plant's ability to refill embolized conduits while xylem pressures were substantially negative. Intact, potted plants were water‐stressed to a xylem pressure of −1.88 ± 0.1 MPa and a 66.3 ± 3.8% loss of xylem conductivity (PLC) by cavitatio...
