e1“Dicots tended to show a decreased minor vein density, whereas monocots reduced the size of the bundle sheath and its extensions, rather than the minor vein density”
e0“We found a conserved pattern in which leaf photosynthesis and hydraulic conductance concurrently decreased under potassium starvation”

Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Leaf photosynthesis and hydraulic conductance both decreased under potassium starvation
- Intervention effect Monocots reduced the size of the bundle sheath rather than minor vein density under potassium starvation
- Observation Mesophyll conductance and outside-xylem hydraulic resistance were major contributors to photosynthetic limitation, at more than 50 percent
- Observation Outside-xylem hydraulic resistance increased hydraulic resistance by 60 percent under potassium deficiency
- Mechanism Potassium coordinates leaf photosynthesis and hydraulic conductance through modifications of leaf anatomy
