Below-ground hydraulics control stomatal closure
Botanists find that during soil drying, stomatal regulation is controlled by below-ground hydraulics in a predictable way.

In oilseed rape (Brassica napus) bzh dwarf plants have improved nitrogen (N) uptake, N-utilization and N-use efficiency compared to normal types. Is this due to their shoots, or do roots play a role?
Cell membrane stability, which ensures dehydration tolerance of roots and meristems, is positively and negatively correlated to fructan and sucrose contents, respectively.
