- Association Dry matter production was closely related to water consumption, r = 0.98.
- Association Dry matter production was closely related to spindle growth rate, r = 0.91.
- Method / resource Spindle growth was more reliable than dewlap height for short-term dry-weight production measurements.
- Intervention effect Low root temperature affected leaf growth more than low air temperature.
- Intervention effect Low root temperature reduced water consumption per unit leaf area.
- Intervention effect Temperature had no effect on transpiration ratio.
- Intervention effect Fresh weight to dry-weight increase ratio was about four times lower under cool versus warm root conditions.
