Transpiration: Water Use Efficiency

2007
The balance between carbon assimilation (net photosynthetic production) and the throughput of water by transpiration (resource use in terms of water) results in a benefit–cost ratio of interest to eco-physiologists and crop physiologists, known as water use efficiency.

Irrigation and Water Use Efficiency

1976
In the preceding decades knowledge regarding water supply, water uptake, transpiration, and plant growth has increased enormously. Various handbooks have been written on this subject from either a physical, ecophysiological, agronomic, or engineering point of view (Slatyer, 1967; Kozlowski, 1972; Kovda et al., 1973; Monteith, 1973). Moreover, field and

Agroforestry: Water Use Efficiency

2020
Agroforestry is the intentional integration of trees and shrubs into agricultural systems. In agricultural systems, water is often the major factor limiting growth. When water availability is limited as a result of limited supply or high cost, its efficient use becomes critical to successful production systems.

Increasing Water Use and Water Use Efficiency in Dryland Wheat

Agronomy Journal, 2001
Water use efficiency (WUE), the ratio of grain yield to crop water use, provides a simple means of assessing whether yield is limited by water supply or other factors. Based on this assessment, yields of commercial dryland wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crops in southeastern Australia are usually not limited by water.

Water use efficiency by the olive.

2008
AbstractThe olive tree is very efficient in its use of water. It requires 312 g water to produce 1 g dry matter, whereas other evergreen plants such as Citrus and Prunus species require 400 and 500 g, respectively. Water consumption by the olive is 30 and 40% of that of Citrus and Prunus species, respectively.

Genetic Engineering as a Key to Water-Use Efficiency

Agricultural Meteorology, 1974
Abstract Most of the present breeding systems are locked into certain germ plasm sources and the chance development of cultivars with greater water-use efficiency is very small. Extensive germ plasm pools containing genes for greater water-use efficiency exist, but heavy selection pressure is necessary to identify these genes.

Plant Water-use Efficiency

2021
The loss of water vapour from aerial tissues of terrestrial plants as they assimilate CO 2 from the atmosphere for photosynthesis is biophysically unavoidable. Photosynthesis and transpiration co-vary with the aperture and density of stomatal pores, and are co-determined by the leaf area, which is involved in light capture and water loss.
