- Diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) is the amount by which two solutions differ in their diffusion pressure.
- It is defined as the amount by which the diffusion pressure of water or solvent in a solution is lower than that of pure water or solvent is known as diffusion pressure deficit. It allows for easy absorption of water due to the diffusion pressure gradient. Water moves from lower DPD to higher DPD.
- It is equal to the difference between osmotic pressure and turgor pressure.
- DPD of a cell is influenced by both osmotic pressure and wall pressure (turgor pressure) which opposes the endosmotic entry of water, i.e. DPD = OP - wall pressure.

Diffusion
Actual flow of water is decided by the deficit in diffusion pressure. More the dissolved solute particles greater will be the deficit in diffusion pressure and lesser the number of solute particles lesser will be deficit in diffusion pressure. One more component is the wall pressure which is equal and opposite to the turgor pressure. Mathematically expressed DPD is equal to OP - TP. Water moves from an area of lower DPD to an area of higher DPD.
If cell A with DPD $5$ atm is surrounded by many cells with DPD $4$ atm then.

Diffusion
The actual pressure with which water enters into a cell is 'Diffusion Pressure Deficit' or DPD. It can be calculated as the difference in the osmotic pressure and turgor pressure. Osmotic pressure causes movement of water into the cell and develops because of the solutes dissolved in the solution of cell sap. On the other hand the turgor pressure is an opposing force, which works in the direction opposite to the movement of water and prevents entry of water into the cell. Turgor pressure develops because of the entry of water into the cell.
The osmotic parameter determining flow of water from one cell to another is
-
Osmotic pressure
-
Turgor pressure
-
Diffusion pressure deficit
-
Hydrostatic pressure
Diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) is a negative measurement to understand the flow of water from one cell to another. It is important to note that we are considering deficit in diffusion pressure and not diffusion pressure. As a rule, water always flows from lower DPD to higher DPD. This is because lesser the dissolved salts, lesser will be the deficit (so low DPD) and more the dissolved salts more will the deficit (so high DPD). As you can guess water will flow from a region of lower dissolved salts (i.e., low DPD) towards a region of more dissolved salts (i.e., higher DPD).
Which of the following is not correct about $DPD$?
-
Its the loss of diffusion pressure
-
Maximum valu of $DPD$ is equal to $OP$
-
$DPD$ of pure $H _{2}O$ is zero
-
Increase in $TP$ of a cell decreases $DPD$
The term diffusion pressure deficit (DPD) is the reduction in the diffusion pressure of water in solution or cell over its pure state due to presence of solutes in it and forces opposing diffusion. Diffusion pressure of water is maximum and its theoretical value is 1236 atm. DPD of a solution is equal to its osmotic pressure i.e. DPD = OP(of solution). DPD of a cell is influence by both osmotic pressure and wall pressure (turgor pressure) which opposes the endosmotic entry of water, i.e. DPD = OP - Wall pressure. DPD is directly proportional to the concentration of the solution. DPD decreases with dilution of solution. The actual pressure with which cell absorbs water is called "suction pressure".
Which of the following is incorrectly match :-
-
For fully turgid cell $ \Rightarrow $ DPD $ = 0 $
-
DPD of solution is vessel $ \Rightarrow $ $ OP - TP = 0 $
-
For full turgid cell $ \Rightarrow OP = TP $
-
DPD for a flaccid cell $ \Rightarrow DPD = OP $
It is reduction in the diffusion pressure of water in solution or cell over its pure state due to presence of solutes in it and forces opposing diffusion. Diffusion pressure of water is maximum and its theoretical value is 1236 atm. DPD of a solution is equal to its osmotic pressure i.e. DPD = OP(of solution) and in this case the DPD is not zero. For a turgid cell OP=TP and DPD=0. DPD for a flaccid cell is maximum and is equal to OP.

-
$DPD=OP-TP$
-
$OP=TP$
-
${ \Psi } _{ w }={ \Psi } _{ s }+{ \Psi } _{ p }$
-
${ \Psi } _{ w }={ \Psi } _{ s }-{ \Psi } _{ p }$
Diffusion pressure deficit - It is described as the ability of water to move is used to measure in terms of diffusion pressure.
Which cell has maximum diffusion pressure deficit?
-
Flacid cell
-
Turgid cell
-
Prokaryotic cell

Diffusion pressure deficit or DPD is the difference between the pressure of a solution and a pure solvent. It is also called as suction pressure. In order to achieve the equilibrium or attain zero value of DPD, the solvent from low solute concentration or low DPD to high solute concentration or high DPD. In other words, the diffusion pressure deficit is equal to the total of osmotic pressure and turgor pressure. DPD is maximum in pure water. In a flaccid cell, there is no movement of water. In a flaccid cell, there is no turgor pressure. Hence, DPD is equal to the osmotic pressure.
