Container volume affects drought experiments in grapevines: Insights on xylem anatomy and time of dehydration.

The xylem anatomy results revealed that the petiole vessels of vines grown in small containers were larger than those in large containers, resulting in a highly significant increase of the theoretical hydraulic conductance ( kh ).

In general, during the entire drought period, S‐D showed a trend towards lower values than L‐D (Figure S4 ), but no statistical differences were observed at any date of measurement. 3.3 Rewatering period Since irrigation was re‐started at different times for L‐D and S‐D containers, we present the g s and A N data in parallel as days of rewatering (DOR) to permit a direct comparison between L and S (Figure 3 ).
