TL;DR: Time-course studies showed levels of inorganic cations were not altered in the growing areas during the first few h of PEG-induced stress, but glucose increased as i/<„ decreased, and the results showed that proline increase is not the cause but could be a consequence of osmotic adjustment, and its increase was not due to cell death.

TL;DR: Young barley seedlings were stressed using nutrient solutions containing NaCl or polyethylene glycol and measurements were made of leaf growth, water potential, osmotic potential and turgor values of both growing (basal) and nongrowing (blade) tissues, hypothesized that blades have high water potential values and are generally unresponsive to stress.

TL;DR: Leaf growth responses to root temperature, although apparently "uncoupled" from water transport properties, were correlated with ion fluxes, indicating differences in the sites of temperature effects.

TL;DR: Comparaciones were made of the physiology and growth of tops and tubers of recovered and permanently injured potatoes of the cultivars ‘Denali,’ ‘Kennebec,” and ‘Norgold Russet’ and the pattern of carbohydrate content changes was similar for permanently injured and recovered cultivars.

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimum root temperatures for leaf expansion were 250 and 350C, respectively, for barley and sorghum seedlings, and the root conductance increased with increasing root temperature to a high value at 250C, remaining high with further warming.
