| Περίληψη: | With increasing drought events worldwide, crop breeding must focus on drought resistance to maintain crop yields. To ensure a high level of gas exchange and growth, plants need to maintain the integrity of their vascular system under drought conditions. While the impact of drought-induced vascular damage on tree species is well-documented, its effect on the yield of annual crops like soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) remains unknown. We investigated xylem vulnerability to embolism of ten soybean cultivars with contrasting phylogenetic origins and phenology using the optical technique. With X-ray micro-tomography, we assessed xylem vulnerability across the plant vascular pathway to quantify the vulnerability segmentation. Our results revealed that soybean is moderately vulnerable to xylem embolism (mean leaf P (© 2025 The Author(s). Plant, Cell & Environment published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.) |
