Figure 5: The relationship between the soluble sugar content and the starch content in the sapwood of distal branches over the experimental period.
From: The dynamics of carbon stored in xylem sapwood to drought-induced hydraulic stress in mature trees

(A) The data show in Hibiscus glaber. (B) The data show in Ligustrum micranthum. Open and closed symbols show data during the dehydration process and the rehydration process after being supplied with water, respectively. A significant correlation was found in both processes in Hibiscus (P = 0.011), whereas a significant correlation was found only in the dehydration process in Ligustrum (P = 0.041).
