摘要
In the paper, the hydraulic architecture parameters of Pinus tabulaeformis seedlings (4 years old)were measured by improved flushing method under normal water condition in the green house and the basictheory of hydraulic architecture is used to discuss the rationality of the pipe model. The results of theexperiment and simulation show that the differences of hydraulic conductivity, specific conductivity and leafspecific conductivity is great in different stems and branches of Pinus tabulaeformis seedlings. The hydraulicconductivity of non-constriction area is higher than that of constriction area. The devotion of functionalxylem of stem to unit leaf growth is not a constant, namely, the Huber value is diverse. Even though the pipemodel has been accepted in some areas, its precondition is not perfect, and it is helpless in correctlyunderstanding the essence of water transport in seedlings from the prospective of water physiology.
