Cycloheximide inhibits root water flow and stomatal conductance in aspen (<i>Populus tremuloides</i>) seedlings
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Aspen ( Populus tremuloides Michx.) roots were treated with cycloheximide, a protein synthesis inhibitor, to examine the role of protein synthesis in root water transport and plant water relations. Within less than 30 min following root application, cycloheximide inhibited steady‐state root water flow rates and 1 h after the application of 1 m m cycloheximide, root hydraulic conductivity had decreased by 85% compared with control roots. However, stomatal conductance showed a significant inhibition only after 2 h following cycloheximide treatment. The reduction in root hydraulic conductivity was accompanied by an almost three‐fold increase in the apoplastic water flow ratio as determined by the trisodium 3‐hydroxy‐5,8,10‐pyrenesulphonate tracer dye. Cycloheximide‐treated roots showed a decrease in the immunostaining intensity of a 32 kDa microsomal protein band that immunoreacted with the AnthPIP1; 1 antibody suggesting a decrease in the membrane aquaporin expression. These changes occurred without severe metabolic disruptions as measured by root respiration. The results point to the importance of protein‐mediated transport in roots and the rapidity of response suggests that protein synthesis may be used as a principal regulatory mechanism in root water transport in aspen.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
