Water and Radiation Use Efficiencies by Erythrina velutina and Enterolobium contortisiliquum Under Different Water Conditions

Floresta e Ambiente, 2020
This study investigated the water and radiation use efficiencies by Erythrina velutina and Enterolobium contortisiliquum under four water regimes. The experiment was carried out in the municipality of Serra Talhada, PE, Brazil.

Avenues for genetic modification of radiation use efficiency in wheat [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2000
Radiation use efficiency (RUE) of a crop is a function of several interacting physiological phenomena, each of which can be tackled independently from the point of view of genetic improvement. Although wheat breeding has not raised RUE substantially, theoretical calculations suggest room for improvement.

Water and Radiation Use Efficiencies in Sorghum

Agronomy Journal, 2013
Increasing water and radiation use efficiencies (WUE and RUE, respectively) are critical to enhance crop production. Exploring genetic variability in WUE and RUE is necessary to improve these traits. The objectives of this research were to evaluate eight sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] genotypes for biomass production, WUE, and RUE and to test ...

Effect of tillage and irrigation management on radiation use efficiency of wheat (Triticum aestivum)

The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2022
Field experiments were conducted during 2015–16 and 2016–17 on wheat (cv HD2967) in a sandy loam soil at ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi to study the effect of tillage and irrigation management on radiation use efficiency (RUE)

Wheat traits and the associated loci conferring radiation use efficiency

The Plant Journal, 2022
SUMMARYWheat (Triticum aestivum L.) radiation use efficiency (RUE) must be raised through crop breeding to further increase the yield potential, as the harvest index is now close to its theoretical limit. Field experiments including 209 wheat cultivars which have been widely cultivated in China since the 1940s were conducted in two growing seasons ...

Efficient sound radiation using a bandgap structure [PDF]

Applied Physics Letters, 2019
This work reports on the use of bandgaps to increase the efficiency of sound radiation employing defect modes on a phononic crystal (PnC). A PnC consisting of a 2D array of studs on an aluminum plate is considered, and a defect is created by removing four studs.

A Simple Method to Estimate Photosynthetic Radiation Use Efficiency of Canopies [PDF]

Annals of Botany, 2004
Photosynthetic radiation use efficiency (PhRUE) over the course of a day has been shown to be constant for leaves throughout a general canopy where nitrogen content (and thus photosynthetic properties) of leaves is distributed in relation to the light gradient. It has been suggested that this daily PhRUE can be calculated simply from the photosynthetic

Light interception and radiation use efficiency of cotton [PDF]

, 2021
Η συσσώρευση ξηράς ουσίας από μια καλλιέργεια είναι μια άμεση συνάρτηση της ποσότητας της ακτινοβολίας που αναχαιτίζεται από την φυλλική επιφάνεια. Η αποτελεσματικότητα μιας καλλιέργειας να μετατρέπει την αναχαιτισμένη ακτινοβολία σε ξηρή μάζα ονομάζεται αποδοτικότητα χρήσης ακτινοβολίας.

Radiation dimming induced modifications in radiation utilization of wheat (Triticumaestivum) crop

Journal of Agrometeorology, 2020
Global dimming has many environmental and climatic implications. India has also experienced a steady and continuous radiation dimming since 1960s due to increasing load of dust and aerosol in the atmosphere.
