Answer:

Guttation is the process of loss of water from the surface of leaves in the form of liquid drops. ... Guttation occurs when root pressure is high and transpiration is low. Guttation is frequently seen occurring at night in herbaceous plants growing under conditions of high soil moisture and high atmospheric humidity.

ANSWER: Guttation is most commonly observed under conditions of High atmospheric humidity and plentiful soil water.

EXPLANATION:

  • Guttation is the liquid loss of water from healthy leaf tips as a diluted solution. The leaf tips that are unharmed have water stomata.
  • Low transpiration results in them oozing diluted mineral solutions under the impact of increased root pressure. Therefore, guttation is primarily seen at night when transpiration is low, for instance because of high atmospheric humidity and enough water in the soil.
  • Positive root pressure is the most significant force causing guttation.
  • Due to the less frequent occurrence of the essential combination of warm, moist soil and humid air in the temperate zone than in the tropics, it is uncommon in woody plants of that region.

Thus Guttation is most commonly observed under conditions of high atmospheric humidity and plentiful soil water.
