Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Dry matter production was linearly related to absorbed photosynthetically active radiation across the season, cultivars and soil moisture levels.
- Intervention effect Moisture stress reduced intercepted radiation by limiting canopy size.
- Intervention effect Moisture stress reduced radiation conversion efficiency.
- Observation The two cultivars had similar conversion efficiency under optimal water regimes.
- Intervention effect Drought reduced conversion efficiency more strongly in Minica.
- Association Mean and maximum crop growth rates depended strongly on radiation absorption and efficiency.
- Association Seed yield reductions followed trends in total biomass production.
- Intervention effect Moisture stress reduced harvest index in Minica.
