Severe Water Deficit

The ability of protoplasm to revive following severe water deficit is at its greatest in desiccation-tolerant or ‘resurrection’ plants. Boea hygroscopica is a resurrection plant that is able to survive air-dryness following slow dehydration (80% RH) in a physiological state called anabiosis (Schwab & Gaff 1990). However, this plant loses the ability to recover complete physiological activity following rapid water loss (0% RH).The ability to recover complete physiological activity following repeated protoplasmic dehydration of fully differentiated tissues is an adaptation mechanism unique to resurrection plants.

Physical Principles

Soft porous solids can change their shapes by absorbing liquids via capillarity. Such poro-elasto-capillary interactions can be seen in the wrinkling of paper, swelling of cellulose sponges, and morphing of resurrection plants. Here, we introduce physical principles relevant to the phenomena and survey recent advances in the understanding of swelling and shrinkage of bulk soft porous media due to wetting and drying. We then consider various morphing modes of porous sheets, which are induced by localized wetting and swelling of soft porous materials. We focus on physical insights with the aim of triggering novel experimental findings and promoting practical applications.
