This study was conducted to evaluate the response of Iranian promisinglate blooming almond genotypes to deficit-irrigation stress on GN15 rootstock. One-year old plants subjectedto three deficit-irrigation, including moderate and severe stress (soil water potential, Ψsoil = -0.8 and -1.6 MPa, respectively) and a control treatment (Ψsoil= -0.33 MPa), were applied for six weeks to five grafting c...

This study aimed to evaluate the fruit yield and the distribution of ‘Tommy Atkins’ mango root system under different irrigation regimes in the semiarid region of Bahia. The experimental design was completely randomized with five treatments and three replicates: 1 Irrigation supplying 100% of ETc in phases I, II and III; 2 Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) supplying 50% of ETc in phase I (begi...

Critical growth stage of cotton crop was investigated by artificially imposing water stress under field conditions. The crop was given water deficit stress for a period of 30 days at squaring (SS) and first boll split (BS) phases by maintaining the leaf water potential (yw) at –2.2+0.2 MPa whereas in control plots yw was maintained at -1.6+ 0.2 MPa by irrigation scheduling. The average irrigati...

water is the most limiting factor in irrigated agriculture, mainly in mediterranean environments, as in the case of southwest spain. in this area, almond is one of the most valuable crops due to its high drought tolerance. this work examines the crop coefficients (kc) based on four drainage lysimeters installed in an experimental young almond orchard. complementary, two deficit-irrigation treat...

effects of seed priming by salicylic acid on yield and yield components of cowpea (vigna unguiculata) cultivar “parastou” were investigated under water deficit conditions. experiment was carried out as a split block design with three replications in 2008-2009 at research station of zanjan university. factors included drought stress as main factor with three levels (normal irrigation, applicatio...

The improvement of irrigation systems in the Nile Delta is one of the most important attempts in Egypt to implement more effective irrigation technology by improving the existing irrigation networks. Demand delivery system in the existing irrigation network is using of mechanical gates structures to automatically divert water from one portion of an agricultural field to another in the desired a...

this study was conducted to determine the effect of cliniptilolite natural zeolite on deficit irrigation stress tolerance on maize cultivar ksc704. the experiment was laid out as a factorial design based on randomized complete block with three replications at seed and plant improvement institute, karaj in 2012. four irrigation levels, including irrigation after 70, 95, 120 and 145 mm cumulative...

this study was conducted to evaluate the impact of deficit irrigation and growth stages on yield and yield components of potatoes and water use efficiency. a field experiment was conducted at shahrekord agricultural research station over three years of crop seasons using a randomized complete block design with three replications. plots were assigned to five levels of deficit irrigation treatmen...

Drip irrigation and mulching are often used to alleviate the problem of poor water management in many crops; however, these technologies have not yet been tested for applying at critical stages guava orchard growth subtropical humid Tarai regions India improve yield quality. A field experiment was conducted over 2020 2021 which included three strategies: severe deficit (DI 50 ), moderate 75 ful...
