- Association Longer early season drought treatments produced more pronounced root anatomical changes.
- Observation After 21 days, drought and irrigation differed in xylem vessel diameter, number, and area.
- Intervention effect Drought reduced xylem vessel diameter and area relative to irrigated controls.
- Mechanism Authors suggest root anatomical plasticity improves water uptake and transport.
