Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Cultivars did not differ in leaf water status.
- Intervention effect Water deficit did not significantly alter Prop leaf appearance rate.
- Intervention effect Water deficit decreased leaf appearance rate in the other cultivars.
- Intervention effect Water deficit halved leaf size in Kopu and Pitau.
- Observation Prop had the lowest stolon growing-point survival under water deficit.
- Observation Pitau had the highest stolon growing-point survival under water deficit.
- Observation Under optimum water, Prop had the greatest leaf longevity and Pitau the least.
- Observation Under water deficit, the leaf-longevity ranking of Prop and Pitau reversed.
- Intervention effect Growth parameters of smaller-leaved cultivars, especially Prop, were less affected by water deficit than those of large-leaved cultivars.
- Observation Prop maintained higher leaf appearance rate than other cultivars under water deficit.
- Mechanism Prop low stolon growing-point survival could impair drought recovery.
- Observation Small-leaved cultivars are rarely taprooted.
