Researchers at Oregon State University, Texas A&M and Ghent University studied plant water use on a global scale across all climates. A new study in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution may help ...

As temperatures rise in July and August, transpiration from plants might add to the humidity. One plant that gets more blame than others is corn, said Dan Quinn, assistant professor of agronomy and ...

A research team successfully developed a solar-powered artificial plant device and rapidly purified soil contaminated with radioactive cesium. This device, which mimics plant transpiration, can ...

SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) — All of Utah remains in severe drought conditions, with 43.5% of the state still in extreme drought conditions. Our rivers and streams are all flowing at below normal levels, ...

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Evapotranspiration is responsible for 15% of our atmosphere's water vapor. Evapotranspiration is the combination of evaporation and transpiration. Both processes release water ...

American Journal of Botany, Vol. 23, No. 5 (May, 1936), pp. 355-362 (8 pages) In an attempt to determine whether absorption and movement of water in plants may affect the rate of absorption and ...

Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol. 10, No. 29 (June 1959), pp. 301-316 (16 pages) The relationship between the rate at which water and the rubidium and phosphate ions are absorbed by intact plants, ...

Dear Jessica: Can you please tell me what these droplike things are on the leaves in the picture? If it’s a disease, how do I treat it? — Marilyn Von Braunsberg, Oceanside Dear Marilyn: Those sticky ...

Particulate matter deposits on leaves increase plant transpiration and the risk of plants suffering from drought. Particulate matter could thus be contributing more strongly to tree mortality and ...

As water travels through the xylem in the stem and leaf, it is being replaced by water taken up by the roots. Photosynthesis produces glucose in the green parts of plants, which are often leaves. This ...
