Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation reduced grain yield of Kimia and Speedeh by 16 and 26%.
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation improved irrigation water use efficiency of Kimia and Speedeh.
- Association Sorghum yield adjustment to water stress was mainly through fewer grains per panicle rather than lower grain mass.
- Intervention effect Application of all forms of P fertilizer improved grain yield of sorghum.
- Intervention effect Combined fertilizer under drought made sorghum use irrigation water more efficiently.
- Association Root colonization percentage was greater in Kimiya than in Speedeh under full and deficit irrigation.
- Association Both genotypes showed a lower degree of root colonization under drought conditions.
- Recommendation Combined fertilizer could be considered as an alternative to chemical P fertilizer when irrigation water is limited.
