Transpiration and the Ascent of Sap in Plants

Abstract

PROF. DIXON first became known as an investigator of the problem of the ascent of water in plants by his work in collaboration with Dr. Joly published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society, 1894, and in the Philosophical Transactions, 1895, and from that time forward he has with admirable patience and efficiency continued to work at this difficult question. The appreciation of his position as an authority in this department is shown by his having been most appropriately chosen as a contributor to the “Progressus Rei Botanicæ”, and finally as a writer in the present series of science monographs.
