Abstract
This discussion wil1 focus on the measurement of plant stem diameter and apoplast electrochemical status. Emphasis will be directed primarily towards the instrument techniques themselves under field conditions as opposed to the physiological interpretation of the data. For the latter see references 1,3,5,6,7,9,10,11,13,15.
