Abstract
An analysis of the forces exerted during the osmotic changes in volume of plant cells shows that the outwardly directed turgor pressure and the inwardly directed wall pressure are numerically equal under dynamic as well as static conditions. The suggestion that the term 'potential' should replace 'pressure' in all cases except where reference is to a hydrostatic pressure, is strongly supported.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
