The chemical identity of intervessel pit membranes in Acer challenges hydrogel control of xylem hydraulic conductivity

Ion-mediated enhancement of the hydraulic conductivity of xylem tissue (i.e. the ionic effect) has been reported for various angiosperm species. One explanation of the ionic effect is that it is caused by the swelling and shrinking of intervessel pit membranes due to the presence of pectins and/or o...
