In vivo pressure gradient heterogeneity increases flow contribution of small diameter vessels in grapevine
Leaves lose approximately 400 H(2)O molecules for every 1 CO(2) gained during photosynthesis. Most long-distance water transport in plants, or xylem sap flow, serves to replace this water to prevent desiccation. Theory predicts that the largest vessels contribute disproportionately to overall sap fl...
