Stem Diameter in Relation to Plant Water Status [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1971 An instrument containing a linear variable differential transformer was constructed to obtain continuous, nondestructive measurements of both short term changes in stem diameter and long term growth. In cotton plants, stem diameter, leaf water potential, and leaf relative water content are all closely related to net radiation at the top of the canopy ...

Carotenoid Compounds in Grapes and Their Relationship to Plant Water Status [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2003 The aim of this work was to study the relationship between carotenoid contents in grapevine berries and plant water status. For this purpose, a black grapevine variety, Vitis vinifera L. cv. Touriga Nacional, was studied. The experiments were carried out in the same Douro vineyards, with plants of the same age, in two different water retention soils. A

Environment and Natural Resources Journal, 2019 This study investigated the effects of using fine and coarse volcanic zeolite tuff on the growth of olive (Olea europaea L.) trees and the silty clay soil in which they were grown. Olive trees were grown in four different soil treatments: silty clay soil

Is it possible to assess the spatial variability of vine water status?
OENO One, 2008 Aims: Plant water status monitoring during the vineyard growth cycle constitutes a basic parameter for both harvest quality and vineyard management. Unfortunately, the plant water status measurement requires skills and heavy devices which drastically ...
