Root Osmotic Adjustment under Osmotic Stress in Maize Seedlings 1. Transient Change of Growth and Water Relations in Roots in Response to Osmotic Stress

The transient changes in seminal root elongation rate, osmotic potential, water potential, and turgor pressure in maize after the onset of stress treatments were examined using polyethylene glycol 6000 to evaluate the process of osmotic adjustment in root. Maize seedlings were exposed to different i...
