net accumulation of solutes in plant cells under water deficit, lowering osmotic potential so that turgor and growth are kept up as water potential falls.

In plant physiology, osmotic adjustment refers to net accumulation of solutes in plant cells under water deficit, lowering osmotic potential so that turgor and growth are kept up as water potential falls. This meaning comes from Morgan (1984) in Annual Review of Plant Physiology.[1]
