Summary Considerable progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms of embolism formation based on pneumatic method, which relies gas discharge measurements. Here, we test assumption that cut-open conduits are gas-filled when samples cut at high water potentials. We performed vulnerability curves (VC) with Pneumatron and analysed sap extraction from vessels Citrus branches, while optical method was applied as a reference method. VCs 11 additional angiosperms were to generalise our findings. found an increase during early stages dehydration, affected VC . Xylem not absorbed immediately by surrounding tissue branches. The amount discharged increased until all residue absorbed, near turgor loss point. By analysing slope VCs, could correct VC, evidenced strong agreement resistance between Since residual some species slightly reduce species, propose apply easy correction for this novel artefact. Automated measurements also required because its time resolution.

The pneumatic method is a novel determining vulnerability to embolism in plants, yet it remains unclear whether this suitable for all species with different xylem anatomy. In study, using six tree contrasting anatomy, including four vessel-bearing (diffuse-porous wood and ring-porous wood) two tracheid-bearing (non-porous wood), we test the reliability of by comparing hydraulic methods also considering turgor loss point native embolism. Vessel length distribution cut-open vessel volume were evaluated silicone injection technique. Additionally, synthesized published data find out consistency between methods. Results showed that there was maximum 10-folds difference mean diameter varying from 30 56 μm among species. estimated open ranges 0.064 0.397 mL, 14% tube vacuum reservoir. For species, good methods, evidenced significantly overestimated because bad consistencies plant water relations. Data synthesis suggested can accurately measure but not Our study provided further evidence accurate most thus has potential be widely used hydraulics field. However, proposed precise calculation air discharge should take into account vessels wide long vessels.
