Abstract
Abstract. Black alder seedlings were exposed to 12 weeks of sublethal water stress by watering only when visibly wilted. Control seedlings were watered regularly throughout the treatment period. Stressed seedlings exhibited significant osmotic adjustment of over 0.4 MPa. The water stress treatment also significantly reduced leaf size, increased epicuticular wax content, and increased the root shoot ratio. The response of leaf conductance to decreasing leaf water potential was influenced by the previous water stress treatment Stressed seedlings had a much lower initial leaf conductance, but showed a gradual drop in leaf conductance as leaf water potential decreased; whereas, control seedling leaf conductance fell rapidly. These morphological and physiological modifications in response to moisture stress have the potential for significantly improving black alder drought tolerance.
