Sensitivity of growth of roots versus leaves to water stress : biophysical analysis and relation to water transport

Water transport is an integral part of the process of growth by cell expansion and accounts for most of the increase in cell volume characterizing growth. Under water deficiency, growth is readily inhibited and growth of roots is favoured over that of leaves. The mechanisms underlying this different...
