| Abstract | Young barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv Arivat) leaves were examined anatomically and physiologically to infer the pathway of transpirational water movement and to explain why the growing region is more responsive to osmotic stress than the expanded blade. Vessels with open lumens extend from the intercalary meristem to the expanded blade, and all vessels are clustered in five vascular bundles that are separated by 20 closely packed mesophyll cells. Heat pulse transport data confirmed the anatomical suggestion that water moves through the growing region in vessels and not intercellularly, and also showed that stress reduces xylem water transport within 1 minute while transpiration remained unaffected. Water equal in volume to twice that expected in the xylem, and which exchanges more readily with water in the nutrient solution than with most water in tissues, can be extracted easily from growing tissues. It is hypothesized that this water is xylem plus cell wall water, that osmotic stress will quickly reduce its in situ water potential, and that stress causes growth to stop because cells in the growing region can respond rapidly to changes in water potential around them. In the expanded blade, bundles containing vessels are three and eight cells away from the closest and next substomatal cavities. This allows xylem water loss to occur predominantly through the closest stomata, and the expanded blade is believed to be less responsive because effects of stress on xylem water potential are confined largely to cells immediately around the vessels. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
