Vascularization
Evolutionary perspective #
-
-
-
Xylem
No specialized cells
Poikilohydric
-
-
-
I.e. found in algae, lichens, mosses, and ferns, and a few vascular plant taxa such as the pteridophytes and lycophytes
-

-
hydroids
-
-
Apomorphic trait, similar function but different origin to true vascular tissue

Upright stem, prostrate stems, downward (rootlike) stems

Components
-
ψ = ψp + ψπ + ψm
ψp = pressure potential:
-
If water is under pressure, both pressure potential and water potential increase.
ψπ = osmotic potential:
-
Adding solutes decreases water’s free energy, so ψπ is always negative.
ψm = matric potential:
adhesion to structures such as cell walls, membranes, and soil particles
Adhesion can only decrease water’s free energy, so ψm is always negative.

-
Cohesion-tension theory
-
-
-
-
Water evaporates out of open stomata to drier atmosphere, creating water potential differential
-
-
-
-
-
-
Water pases through endodermis, filtering solution, preventing embolism and foreign invaders
-
-
-
Water pulled up stem under tension, in an unbroken column
As H2O diffuses out of xylem in the leaves, cohesive forces pull H2O upward through the xylem, all the way from the roots.
-
Tension is on these molecules, and consequently, the pressure potential is a negative number.
-
-
-
Pressure-flow hypothesis
-
-
Increases osmotic concentration, decreases water potential in sieve tube
-
Water enters sieve tube from xylem due to water potential differential, creating turgor pressure
