Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Irrigation at T65 and T80 significantly reduced cantaloupe water use efficiency relative to T95.
- Observation Fresh-fruit yield of cantaloupe was 31.73, 38.48 and 54.34 ton/ha under T65, T80 and T95.
- Observation Water use efficiency of cantaloupe was 10.58, 11.25 and 14.16 kg m-3 under T65, T80 and T95.
- Intervention effect Fruit nitrogen and potassium contents were higher under T65 than under T80 and T95.
- Intervention effect Irrigation regime did not significantly affect phosphorus and sodium contents of cantaloupe fruit.
- Association The production function of cantaloupe yield against irrigation water depth was fitted by a second-order polynomial (R 2 = 0.99).
- Association The relationship between cantaloupe water use efficiency and irrigation water depth was fitted by a second-order polynomial (R 2 = 0.97).
- Observation Cantaloupe is a crop sensitive to soil moisture stress.
