WATER MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES UNDER DEFICIT IRRIGATION
Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2008 Deficit irrigation (DI) is an optimization strategy whereby net returns are maximized by reducing the amount of irrigation water; crops are deliberated allowed to sustain some degree of water deficit and yield reduction. Although the DI strategy dates back to the 1970s, this technique is not usually adopted as a practical alternative to full irrigation

Impact of water-deficit stress on tritrophic interactions in a wheat-aphid-parasitoid system. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Increasing temperature and CO2 concentrations can alter tritrophic interactions in ecosystems, but the impact of increasingly severe drought on such interactions is not well understood.

Physiological and Agronomic Responses of Four Rice Varieties to Drought in the Rainforest. [PDF]
, 2019 The present investigation tested the hypothesis that there would be variation in physiological responses to water deficit among rice varieties from different production ecologies, with contrasting tolerance to water deficit under repeated cycle of soil ...

Predictive Control Applied to a Solar Desalination Plant Connected to a Greenhouse with Daily Variation of Irrigation Water Demand [PDF]
, 2016 The water deficit in the Mediterranean area is a known matter severely affecting agriculture. One way to avoid the aquifers’ exploitation is to supply water to crops by using thermal desalination processes.

Water-deficit equation: systematic analysis and improvement [PDF]
The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2013 The water-deficit equation {WD(1) = 0.6 × B(m) × [1 - (140 ÷ Na(+))]; B(m) denotes body mass} is used in medicine and nutrition to estimate the volume (L) of water required to correct dehydration during the initial stages of fluid-replacement therapy.

Drought tolerance of sugarcane propagules is improved when origin material faces water deficit.
PLoS ONE, 2018 Drought stress can imprint marks in plants after a previous exposure, leading to plant acclimation and a permissive state that facilitates a more effective response to subsequent stress events.

, 2013 Plant or soil water status are required in many scientific fields to understand plant responses to drought. Because the transcriptomic response to abiotic conditions, such as water deficit, reflects plant water status, genomic tools could be used to ...
