TLDR
In well-watered plants, pinitol concentration was two to three times higher in the Moroccan plants than in the French plants, while myo-inositol concentration seemed only to increase in roots of the Morocco plants.About:

Altitudinal increase of mobile carbon pools in Pinus cembra suggests sink limitation of growth at the Swiss treeline
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed mobile carbon pools in Pinus cembra across the treeline ecotone in the Swiss Alps and concluded that carbon limitation is not responsible for reduced tree growth at the alpine treeline.

Seed desiccation tolerance and storability: Dependence on flatulence-producing oligosaccharides and cyclitols—review and survey
TL;DR: In this article, Axes, cotyledons, embryos or seeds of 19 species in 7 families (all orthodox seeds) were analysed for sucrose, galactosyl derivatives of sucrose and cyclitols by high resolution gas chromatography.

Salinity and drought tolerance of mannitol‐accumulating transgenic tobacco
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of salt and/or drought stress on the full turgor osmotic potential (π o ) of transgenic and wild-type tobacco plants were investigated.

Carbohydrate Metabolism in Drought-Stressed Leaves of Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan)
Felix Keller,M. M. Ludlow +1 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that pinitol accumulated in pigeonpea leaves, because the carbon flux was diverted from starch and sucrose into polyols.

Plant Responses to Water Stress
TL;DR: The role of turgor and sensitivity to stress, as well as growth adjustments during and after stress, are studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preservation of Membranes in Anhydrobiotic Organisms: The Role of Trehalose
TL;DR: Results obtained with infrared spectroscopy indicate that trehalose and DPPC interact by hydrogen bonding between the OH groups in the carbohydrate and the polar head groups of DPPC, and this interaction is specific totrehalose.

A hypothesis relating critical potassium concentrations for growth to the distribution and functions of this ion in the plant cell
Roger A. Leigh,R. G. Wyn Jones +1 more
TL;DR: A model is proposed in which, as the concentration of K in the tissue declines, the concentration in the cytoplasm is initially maintained constant, while that in the vacuole decreases, and the hypothesis explains the observed relationships between growth and concentrations of K.
Journal ArticleDOI
The salt relations of marine and halophilic species of the unicellular green alga, Dunaliella. The role of glycerol as a compatible solute.
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of salt on the exponential growth rates of two unicellular algae, Dunaliella tertiolecta (marine) and Daleniella viridis (halophilic), were compared and it was inferred that Na+ is effectively excluded from the two algae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation of Solutes in Leaves of Sorghum and Sunflower in Response to Water Deficits
TL;DR: The influence of water deficits on the concentrations of major solutes in fully expanded sorghum leaves and fully expanded and partly expanded sunflower leaves was studied in order to assess their contribution to osmotic adjustment.
