Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Drought hardening increased drought tolerance primarily through physiological traits.
- Intervention effect Drought hardening did not affect shoot/root ratio or specific leaf mass.
- Intervention effect Drought hardening reduced stomatal conductance, residual transpiration and new root growth capacity.
- Intervention effect Drought hardening enhanced cell membrane stability.
- Observation Moderate hardening produced the largest response among treated seedlings.
- Intervention effect Severe hardening reduced shoot soluble sugar concentration.
- Intervention effect Severe hardening increased shoot starch concentration.
- Intervention effect Longer hardening did not affect water relations.
- Intervention effect Longer hardening reduced shoot mineral and starch concentrations.
- Association Cell membrane stability, residual transpiration and root growth capacity varied negatively with osmotic adjustment.
- Intervention effect Hardening treatments did not differ in mortality under mesic or xeric transplantation.
- Intervention effect Hardening treatments did not differ in relative growth rate under mesic or xeric transplantation.
