Xylem sap extraction: A method

Abstract Xylem sap extraction from decapitated plants by negative pressure will be discussed in this paper. This method of extraction, in which transpiration is simulated by a negative pressure, uses as a quantitative reference generated by non‐decapitated plants. For this method, several horticultural plant have been used with the main nutritive elements in the sap analyzed by ionic chromatography.
