- Intervention effect Water stress lowered predawn and midday leaf water potentials independently of light.
- Intervention effect Drought lowered osmotic potentials at full and zero turgor under all four light treatments.
- Association The drought related decline in osmotic potential was greater at higher light availability.
- Association Higher irradiance increased soluble sugar concentrations in seedlings.
- Mechanism Higher soluble sugar concentrations lowered osmotic potential at zero turgor.
- Association Moderate stress decreased osmotic potentials and increased εmax.
