Sentence examples for transpiration to avoid from inspiring English sources

Before cutting, the pressure in the root chamber was slightly higher than necessary for compensating the transpiration to avoid embolism.

The third youngest ramet behind the apex from each apical cutting, consisting of an un-rooted node and its attached internode, was dissected and the leaf was removed to avoid excessive transpiration and hence water loss and to remove potentially confounding effects of leaf photosynthesis (Fig.  2).

A pivotal reaction is stomatal closure to avoid water loss by transpiration.

To avoid water loss by transpiration, plants reduce their stomatal conductance, as observed in all the P. australis clones studied here.

In order to avoid embolism during cutting, plant transpiration was lowered by keeping the plants for 2 4 h in a cold room in the dark.

Pots were moved during the growing period to avoid positional effects on light interception or transpiration, which might influence the development of symptoms of B toxicity.

The consequence of increased stelar HKT abundance is an increased retrieval of Na+ from the transpiration stream, which must then be removed from the stelar cells to avoid Na+ toxicity in these relatively small cells which have only a small vacuole.

So, plants with a great capacity to avoid high stem water deficits during periods of high transpiration tend to have a relatively risky stomatal strategy and maintain higher midday gS[ 17].

The soil surface of the pot and the drainage holes were then covered with a plastic film to avoid any water loss by evaporation, any subsequent weight loss being caused by plant transpiration during dry-down.

However, to avoid excessive water loss and/or cavitation, plants often lower gs in response to high transpiration or low leaf water potentials (e.g. Bunce 1997; Tardieu and Simonneau 1998; Brodribb and Holbrook 2003).

The secretion of Na+ might allow S. virginicus to maintain transpiration, while avoiding a toxic accumulation of Na+.
