Directory of perennial plants and flowers that you can grow in partial or lightly shaded areas of the garden, with light and watering requirements, usda zones and growing tips
Plant materials were firstly dried at 105 °C for 30 min to inactivate enzyme in plants, and then dried at 60–70 °C to the constant mass. Finally the dry mass was weighed. Maize water consumption and WUE Maize water consumption was computed using the following water balance ...
The plants were grown in split-root pots in a climate-controlled glasshouse and treated with PRD and DI during early flowering to the fruit maturity stage. The results showed that, in comparison with DI treatment, PRD significantly reduced BER incidence. A greater xylem sap abscisic acid ...
to DI, PRD led to a more conservative control in plant water use via modulating stomatal morphology; the smaller stomata combined with a lower SD in the plants had efficiently reduced plant water use under high N rate, which maintained a better soil water moisture condition in the PRD pots....
For each N rate, the PRD and DI plants received a same amount of water, which allowed re-filling one half of the PRD pots close to full water holding capacity. The results showed that plant dry biomass, plant water use, and water use efficiency were increased with increasing N-...
The moistened seeds were grown in a mixture of soil (Metro-Mix 350; Sun Gro Horticulture, Bellevue, WA, USA) and vermiculite (Konan, Osaka, Japan) in pots (7.5 cm length × 7.5 cm width × 6 cm depth). The ratio of soil to vermiculite was 1:1. The plants were grown under ...
According to the needs of various plants and their growth conditions, accurate estimation of the water demand and the use of irrigation schedules will improve the water use efficiency (WUE) [5]. Deficit irrigation and partial root-zone irrigation (PRI) are potentially water-saving irrigation ...
