Nitrogen uptake by wheat (Triticum aestivum VILL., Host) as a function of root temperature and plant water stress

Creator:

Sepaskhah, Ali Reza

Abstract:

The effect of soil temperature and plant water stress on nitrogen uptake, growth rate and transpiration rate of wheat (Triticum aestivum VILL. , Host) seedlings was studied. A special apparatus for the control of plant water stress and root temperature was used. Leaf area was measured by the air flow...

Leaf elongation as a function of soil water potential and photoperiod

Creator:

Hodges, T.

Abstract:

Leaf elongation is a major indicator of plant growth. It is controlled by complex interactions of many factors including light intensity, photoperiod, water availability, atmospheric conditions, and plant water stress. In this study, the response of leaf elongation to length of photoperiod and to plant water stress as indicated by...
