Figure 6.

Schematic illustration of cortical lacunae progression and its implications on Lpr. A, Root of a well-watered plant showing no sign of strain. B, Cortical lacunae develop via cell death (rhexigeny) and the radial hydraulic properties are severely affected. C, Cortical lacunae collapses causing root shrinkage, and xylem embolism starts being relevant.
