Pertaining to the flow of water across a plant, beginning with the uptake of water via the roots to the point where the water is lost to the external environment from the leaves.
The plant water regulation tutorial elaborates on the way the transpiration stream is an important element of water regulation in plants.
Plants need to regulate water in order to stay upright and structurally stable. Find out the different evolutionary adaptations of plants in terms of structure (e.g. stomata) and physiological mechanisms (e.g. root pressure, capillarity, transpiration pull, curving of leaves, etc.) that enabled them to maintain the appropriate water level...
This tutorial introduces flowing water communities, which bring new and dithering factors into the equation for possible species occupying the area. Read to know more...
