Temporary wilting
Temporary wilting is a condition when the amount of water lost from the plant during transpiration is greater than the amount of water absorbed from the soil. It is the loss of rigidity of non-woody parts of the plants. This occurs when the turgor pressure in non-lignified plant cells falls toward zero, as a result of diminished water in the cells.
