We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and thank you for your patience as we attend to the care and feeding of ERA!

The effects of drought stress on the water relations in Brassica
-
- Author(s) / Creator(s)
-
The physiological responses of different species of Brassica to induced drought stress were studied by analysing the relationships between relative water content, leaf water potential and leaf osmotic potential during the onset of drought stress. These data indicate that while there was a decrease in leaf osmotic potential with the onset of drought stress, this did not result from a net increase in solutes. Therefore, these genotypes of Brassica do not appear able to osmoregulate under these drought conditions.
