A simple ion leakage assay was used to test if specific hardening treatments can increase desiccation tolerance in the moss Atrichum androgynum. Reducing the relative water content (RWC) of apical stem segments to c. 0.6 for 3 d, followed by storing the material fully hydrated for 1 d typically reduced the proportion of intracellular K’ lost following desiccation by between 15 and 20% compared with controls kept moist. Reducing the RWC of the plants further during hardening by using air of lower humidities during hardening did not further increase tolerance. An optimal increase in tolerance occurred after 3 d of hardening; no further increase in tolerance occurred by extending the hardening period to 5 d. While heat shock had no effect, tre...
