Top: Transverse high resolution CT micrographs of grapevine stems showing the radial, sectored spread of embolisms during the simulated drought experiments. Vessel lumen colour denotes the time point (hours) at which gas was first observed inside the vessel. Bars = 1 mm. Bottom: volume renderings of grapevine vessels showing a pathway for embolism spread between sectors and (B–D) Vessels in the red sector embolized first and then spread through a vessel (yellow) that drifted tangentially from the red sector to the blue sector [23]
