- Method / resource MRI at 78 µ m resolution with subtraction detected emptying and refilling of individual xylem vessels.
- Observation Water filled vessels emptied frequently below −0.5 MPa in Actinidia.
- Observation Water filled vessels emptied frequently below −1.0 MPa in Ripogonum.
- Observation No empty vessels refilled in any examined species.
- Observation The authors concluded embolism repair under negative pressure did not occur in the studied species.
