Torus-Margo Pits Help Conifers Compete with Angiosperms by Jarmila Pittermann, John S. Sperry, Uwe G. Hacke, James K. Wheeler, and Elzard H. Sikkema Science Volume 310(5756):1924-1924 December 23, 2005 Published by AAAS

Fig. 1. (A) Sapwood-area resistivity versus average conduit diameter for conifer tracheids with torus-margo (+TM) pit membranes and for angiosperm vessels with homogenous pit membranes. (A) Sapwood-area resistivity versus average conduit diameter for conifer tracheids with torus-margo (+TM) pit membranes and for angiosperm vessels with homogenous pit membranes. Crosses are tracheids substituted with angiosperm pit resistance (–TM). (B) Average conduit length versus diameter. Crosses show the tracheid length required to compensate for the substitution of angiosperm pits. (C) Flow resistance through pits on a membrane-area basis versus cavitation pressure. (D) Scanning electron microscope image of pit membranes with secondary wall removed. (Left) Torus-margo membrane of conifer tracheids; (right) homogenous pit membrane of angiosperm vessels (3). (E) Schematic side view of conducting pits. (F) Conduit network with pits conducting water and sealed against air entry. (G) Side view of pits in sealed and air-seeding position. Air leakage nucleates cavitation in the xylem sap. Jarmila Pittermann et al. Science 2005;310:1924 Published by AAAS
