TL;DR
Chlorophyll fluorescence of mature lemon trees was measured with a Fraunhofer line discriminator (FLD) and an increase in fluorescence was correlated with plant water stress as measured by stomatal resistance and twig water potential.

A method is described which permits measurement of sap pressure in the xylem of vascular plants, and finds that in tall conifers there is a hydrostatic pressure gradient that closely corresponds to the height and seems surprisingly little influenced by the intensity of transpiration.

The transpiration process can be described physically, following Raschke (10), in terms of a resistance to diffusive and turbulent vapor flux in the external air, a similar diffusive resistance which results from the internal leaf geometry, inclusive of the stomata, and parallel to the latter, a Resistance to vapor diffusion through the cuticle.
