Abstract The influence on the water relations of the third developing leaf of (2-chloroethyl)trimethylammoniumchloride, a synthetic growth regulator, applied to the roots of young wheat plants (Triticum aestivum L.) has been investigated. The tissue water potential and the pressure potential were found to be reduced by several bars in comparison to the untreated controls, whereas the osmotic potential remained unchanged. The content of soluble reducing sugars was considerably increased in the cell sap of CCC-treated leaves. With this accumulation, however, the turgor was not maintained. Additionally, CCC-treated leaves showed considerably lower transpiration rates and higher diffusive resistance than the controls. Thus, the application of CCC to the roots causes alterations in the water relations of developing wheat leaves, which resemble those induced by water deficiency.

The pressure bomb is being used to a much greater extent to measure some tissue – water relations parameters such as osmotic pressure, turgor pressure, and cell wall elasticity. Recently, Richards has developed a faster pressure-bomb method of obtaining these and other parameters than the method used by Hammel and modified by us. In this paper, we compare the two methods and conclude that Richards’ method should not be used when accuracy is deemed important. The Richards method usually overestimates osmotic pressure by 0.2 MPa (= 2 bars) and sometimes by 0.8 MPa (= 8 bars).
