e3“The CWSI had negative correlations (p ≤ 0.01) with seed yield, chlorophyll content, and leaf area index, while it had positive correlations with water use efficiency and irrigation water use efficiency (p ≤ 0.01)”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect I70 treatment raised mean CWSI 42% above full irrigation (I100)
- Intervention effect I35 treatment raised mean CWSI 100% above full irrigation (I100)
- Intervention effect I70 treatment seed yield increased to 1245.2 kg ha–1, compared with I35
- Intervention effect I70 treatment seed yield remained lower than I100
- Association CWSI was negatively correlated with seed yield, chlorophyll content and leaf area index
- Intervention effect Pumpkins could be grown successfully at 30% water deficit
- Intervention effect A water deficit higher than 30% may cause a significant seed yield loss in semi-arid climate conditions
- Intervention effect I70 treatment showed manageable water stress with minimal impact
- Intervention effect I35 treatment significantly reduced crop growth and yield
- Recommendation Moderate water deficit (I70) can be adopted in pumpkin cultivation as an alternative to full irrigation
