Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect High cytokinin concentrations caused a greater manifestation of hyperhydricity symptoms in Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings than the control.
- Observation Stomata closure was observed in hyperhydric Arabidopsis thaliana leaves.
- Association Hyperhydric leaves had a decrease in transpiration rates compared with their control leaves.
- Association Hyperhydric leaves had an increased ability to retain water compared with their control leaves.
- Observation Hyperhydric leaves showed an irregular cellular arrangement and large intercellular spaces.
- Association Hyperhydric seedlings had impaired cuticular development compared with normal seedlings.
