e0“A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of water stress on leaf water potential, plant growth, and photosynthesis in purple passionflower ( Passiflora incarnata )”
e5“Values of water potential and net CO 2 assimilation rates in previously stressed plants were not different from the control treatment in the recovery phase”

Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect The 10% ET irrigation lowered leaf water potential compared with control plants in Passiflora incarnata.
- Intervention effect Net CO2 assimilation rates were reduced at 25% and 10% ET compared with 100% ET in Passiflora incarnata.
- Intervention effect The 10% ET irrigation decreased the maximum carboxylation rate allowed by rubisco by about 60%.
- Intervention effect The 10% ET irrigation reduced the rate of photosynthetic electron transport by about 30% compared with control.
- Intervention effect The 10% ET irrigation reduced triose phosphate use (TPU) by about 45% compared with control.
- Recommendation Passiflora incarnata plants could adapt well to landscaping situations where extreme drought is expected.
