Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Evapotranspiration levels did not affect absolute height growth rate, absolute leaf area growth rate or relative leaf area growth rate.
- Intervention effect Sesame height increased through the crop cycle and was influenced by evapotranspiration levels.
- Intervention effect Stem diameter increased through the crop cycle and was affected only by 40% evapotranspiration.
- Intervention effect Relative height and stem diameter growth rates and absolute stem diameter growth rate decreased without proportionality to evapotranspiration levels.
- Intervention effect Absolute and relative aboveground fresh biomass growth rates were proportional to increasing evapotranspiration levels.
