Effects of Deficit-irrigation at Different Stages on Evapotranspiration and Yield of Summer Maize
【Objective】 Deficit irrigation is a technology used widely in most arid and semi-arid regions to increase water use efficiency, but how to optimize the timing of and duration of the deficit remains elusive. The objective of this paper is to fill this gap

Water deficits and hydraulic limits to leaf water supply [PDF]
AbstractMany aspects of plant water use – particularly in response to soil drought – may have as their basis the alteration of hydraulic conductance from soil to canopy. The regulation of plant water potential (Ψ) by stomatal control and leaf area adjustment may be necessary to maximize water uptake on the one hand, while avoiding loss of hydraulic ...

Water-deficit tolerant classification in mutant lines of indica rice
Water shortage is a major abiotic stress for crop production worldwide, limiting the productivity of crop species, especially in dry-land agricultural areas. This investigation aimed to classify the water-deficit tolerance in mutant rice (Oryza sativa L.

Molecular Responses to Water Deficit [PDF]
Water deficit elicits a complex of responses beginning with stress perception, which initiates a signal transduction pathway(s) and is manifested in changes at the cellular, physiological, and developmental levels. The set of responses observed depends upon severity and duration of the stress, plant genotype, developmental stage, and environmental ...
