Within‐leaf variation in embolism resistance is not a rule for compound‐leaved angiosperms
We conclude that within-leaf hydraulic segmentation, caused by variation in embolism resistance, is not a universal phenomenon to compound-leaved species and that the presence of a pulvinus does not provide a barrier to embolism spread in compound leaves.
