Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Irrigation methods had no significant effect on soil temperature.
- Intervention effect Irrigation significantly affected topsoil bulk density, canopy humidity, available nitrogen distribution and soil matric potential.
- Mechanism Changes in soil matric potential were identified as the key reason for altered wheat root profiles.
- Intervention effect Border irrigation produced more fine roots when soil water was low and topsoil bulk density high.
- Intervention effect Surface drip irrigation stimulated root growth most in topsoil layers.
- Association Root profile distribution differed by irrigation method.
- Method / resource An exponential function described the changed root distribution pattern.
