Relationships among xylem transport, biomechanics and storage in stems and roots of nine Rhamnaceae species of the California chaparral

Here, hypotheses about stem and root xylem structure and function were assessed by analyzing xylem in nine chaparral Rhamnaceae species. Traits characterizing xylem transport efficiency and safety, mechanical strength and storage were analyzed using linear regression, principal components analysis a...
