Effect of Leaf Water Potential on Internal Humidity and CO(2) Dissolution: Reverse Transpiration and Improved Water Use Efficiency under Negative Pressure

The pull of water from the soil to the leaves causes water in the transpiration stream to be under negative pressure decreasing the water potential below zero. The osmotic concentration also contributes to the decrease in leaf water potential but with much lesser extent. Thus, the surface tension fo...
