e0“In this study,a root box experiment was carried out to investigate the influence of alternative irrigation on the yield,root weight and length of wheat and faba bean in mono-cropping and intercropping systems”
e1“compared to conventional irrigation treatment correspondingly,the seed yield,biomass,root weight,root length of mono-cropping wheat was increased by 14.7 %,2.9 %,6.4 %,7.2 % respectively,and that of the intercropping wheat was increased by 21.1 %,13.2 %,16.1 %,16.0 % respectively”
