Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Leaf growth was inhibited earlier than root growth under water stress.
- Intervention effect Water stress reduced leaf number in Travis, Vardaman and MS 21-2.
- Intervention effect Limited soil moisture did not inhibit storage root number in Vardaman.
- Intervention effect Water stress retarded storage root development.
- Intervention effect Under non-irrigation, total growth of MS 21-2 was inhibited more than Vardaman.
- Method / resource Mid-day leaf water potential did not show promise as a water-status indicator.
- Observation LDR measurements showed genotypic differences in water-stress sensitivity.
