Temperature Effect On Leaf Water Potential Measurements, Rex J. Prosser
Temperature Effect On Leaf Water Potential Measurements, Rex J. Prosser
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Silver foil psychrometers were used to monitor water potential in different portions of maize leaves which were subjected to temperature gradients. The psychrometers were preliminarily calibrated over standard NaCI solutions at temperatures ranging from 5°C to 45°C in an aluminum plate apparatus designed to provide uniform temperatures within each psychrometer even while overall temperature was changing. Based on the calibrations, empirical temperature correction equations were derived and used to correct psychrometer readings at different temperatures to equivalent values at 25°C. Temperatures on a single maize leaf were varied by placing the long leaf through an insulated box with several compartments …
