This paper provides a mini‐review of evidence for negative turgor pressure in leaf cells starting with experimental evidence in the late 1950s and ending with biomechanical models published in 2014. In the present study, biomechanical models were used to predict how negative turgor pressure might be manifested in dead tissue, and experiments were conducted to test the predictions. The main findings...
The physiological advantages of negative turgor pressure, Pt, in leaf cells are water saving and homeostasis of reactants. This paper advances methods for detecting the occurrence of negative Pt in leaves. Biomechanical models of pressure‐volume (PV) curves predict that negative Pt does not change the linearity of PV curve plots of inverse balance pressure, PB, versus relative water loss, but it does...
