Answer:

Water stress is an important factor limiting the growth and productivity of forests. It can decrease growth directly through its effect on turgor, or indirectly by limiting carbon gain. Water availability can also alter the allocation of carbohydrates between the root and shoot. Trees resist excessive rates of water loss through stomatal regulation, a process which may be mediated by the level of growth regulators transported from the roots during periods of soil water deficits. An indirect effect of water stress on photosynthesis, due to a reduction of gaseous diffusion caused by stomatal closure, often has been noted. However, stress effects in the mesophyll may be more important limitations to photosynthesis than that caused by decreased diffusion of CO2 into the leaf. Responses to water stress, including osmotic adjustment, are also discussed.
