- Intervention effect High KNO3 inhibited root heat flow.
- Intervention effect High KNO3 stimulated osmotic flow.
- Intervention effect High KNO3 reduced electrical polarization of root cells.
- Association Increasing temperature gradient slowed cell polarization.
- Association Decreasing temperature gradient enhanced cell polarization.
- Mechanism The authors infer that osmotic water flow levelled the pressure difference across root cells.
