Deficit irrigation strategies: Use of stress physiology knowledge to increase water use efficency in tomato and potato
(Hauppauge NY : Nova Science Pub Inc; UK ed. edition, 2010)
Many vegetables, including tomato and potato, have high water requirements, so that supplemental irrigation is necessary for successful production. The predictions are that the demand for irrigation will increase considerably ...
Grain filling parameters of two- and six-rowed barley genotypes in terminal drought conditions
(Patron Editore S R L, Bologna, 2018)
After the kernel number per spike has been formed during the vegetative stage, grain weight depends on the rate and duration of grain filling. Drought and high temperatures during the grain filling stage frequently occurs ...
The effect of partial root drying on growth and ions content and distribution on tomato
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2006)
Partial root drying (PRD) is a new irrigation and growing plants technique which improves the water use efficiency without significant yield reduction. The aim of the presented paper was to investigate the effect of PRD ...
The effects of PRD on flowering and fruit set in tomato
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2009)
Partial root drying (PRD) is a new irrigation strategy which applies alternating regimes of irrigation to half the root system while the other half dries out. In PRD treated tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L., v. Astona) ...
Effect of nitrogen fertilization on winter wheat quality
(Springer, 2010)
A field experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of nitrogen fertilizer applications on some quality components of wheat. For winter wheat genotypes (Ana Morava, Vizija, L-3027 and Perla) were grown at Small ...
Comparison of light and fluorescence microscopy for xylem analysis in tomato pedicels during fruit development
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2008)
The xylem hydraulic connection between shoot and fruits has previously been investigated, but contradictory conclusions were drawn about the presence of a flow resistance barrier in the pedicel. In this paper we were ...
Zinc biofortification of bread winter wheat grain by single zinc foliar application
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2021)
Wheat grain Zn concentration has important implications for Zn dietary intake in humans. Zn biofortification of wheat by Zn foliar application has been recognized as an efficient tool to enhance grain Zn level. In Serbia, ...
Water relations and yield of lysimeter-grown strawberries under limited irrigation
(Elsevier, 2007)
The effects of partial root-zone drying (PRD), as compared to deficit irrigation (DI) and full irrigation (FI), on strawberry (cv. Honeoye) berry yield, yield components and irrigation water use efficiency (WUEI) were ...
Polyphenolic profiles, antioxidant, and in vitro anticancer activities of the seeds of Puno and Titicaca quinoa cultivars
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
BACKGROUND: and objectives Quinoa is considered to be a "natural functional food" due to a lot of bioactive compounds that are beneficial for human health by helping prevent the risks of different diseases. The aim of ...
The effect of partial root drying on growth, quality of fruits and ions content on tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.)
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2004)
Introdution: Partial root drying (PRD) is a new irrigation and growing plants technique which improves the water use efficiency without significant yield reduction. Recent results showed that PRD may reduce plants vigour ...
