Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Early sown lentil stored 29 % and 17 % higher root zone soil water than late sown crops.
- Intervention effect NT and MT stored a higher amount of soil water than CT.
- Intervention effect CT experienced intensified stress of 61 % and 74 % during the flowering and pod formation periods.
- Intervention effect Late sown lentil and NT treatments had higher bulk density of 1.52 and 1.55 Mg m−3 than early sown lentil and NT.
- Association Root zone soil water storage was positively correlated with leaf area index (R2 = 0.29).
- Association Root zone soil water storage was positively correlated with relative water content of leaves (R2 = 0.43).
- Association Root growth was heavily affected by the sowing, tillage and potassium treatments.
- Intervention effect Root length density, root surface area and mean root diameter improved at early growth of CT.
- Intervention effect Root volume, number of root tips and number of root forks improved at early growth of CT.
- Intervention effect MT produced maximum roots at reproductive stages of lentil.
- Association The abundance of soil water increased finer roots.
- Association The unavailability of soil water produced coarser roots (> 1.0 mm).
- Intervention effect Kbf performed the best physiological activity, followed by Kb, and was the best treatment in successful mitigation of abiotic stresses.
- Association Seasonal evapotranspiration was 104, 97 and 86.5 mm under early sown NT, MT and CT.
- Association Kbf and Kb accounted for 89.5 mm of seasonal evapotranspiration.
- Association Early sown lentil at minimum tillage with basal and foliar K gave the maximum grain yield (14.23 q ha−1).
- Association Early sown lentil at minimum tillage with basal and foliar K gave the maximum water productivity (13.15 kg ha−1 mm−1).
- Association Lentil yield improved by 1.40 q ha−1 with each 10 mm increment of ETa.
