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...
