Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To clarify the physiological mechanism of a tree death caused by pine wilt disease, the relationship between the physiological traits of needles and the hydraulic traits of xylem in the saplings of Pinus thumbergii inoculated with pine wood nematodes was investigated. Water dynamics in tracheids was also investigated by using cryo-SEM to examine the status of parenchyma cells. Inoculated saplings decreased in stomatal conductance with their embolisms occured from the surrounding cells of resin canals, but maintained high daily water potential (ψ) until the disease symptom was visible. No relationship between water dynamics of tracheids and the deterioration of adjacent parenchyma cells was observed. Controled saplings under ceased irrigation conserved water in tracheids despite their decreasing in ψ, and they showed recovery of gas exchanges by re-irrigation. In conclusion, abnormal embolism would not be avoided by the stomatal closure and obstruct drought resistance of pine saplings.
