Rate of Nitrogen Rather Than Timing of Application Influence Yield and NUE of Canola in South Australian Mediterranean Environments

Agronomy, 2020
Canola has a high nitrogen requirement and optimal nitrogen (N) management in environments with variable rainfall is a challenge. This study investigated the impact of timing of N as a single or split application at different growth stages on seed yield,

Breeding for Water Use Efficiency

, 2012
Among environmental factors, drought is the principal factor that limits global agricultural production. Many global agricultural regions are already suffering serious problems with water shortage and this scenario suggests that greater efforts are required in the development of alternatives for sustainable agriculture, such as the selection of ...

Leaf temperature impacts canopy water use efficiency independent of changes in leaf level water use efficiency

Journal of Plant Physiology, 2021
Canopy water use efficiency (above-ground biomass over lifetime water loss, WUEcanopy) can influence yield in wheat and other crops. Breeding for WUEcanopy is difficult because it is influenced by many component traits. For example, intrinsic water use efficiency (WUEi), the ratio of net carbon assimilation (Anet) over stomatal conductance, contributes
