- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation produced smaller oilseed rape plants than shallow groundwater or full watering.
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation reduced oilseed rape yield relative to shallow groundwater or full watering.
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation produced larger oilseed rape seeds than shallow groundwater or full watering.
- Intervention effect Different partial root-zone drying water patterns had little effect on oilseed rape yield components.
- Observation Oilseed rape roots showed extreme plasticity and foraged effectively for water.
- Recommendation The authors suggest that partial root-zone drying works poorly for oilseed rape.
- Recommendation The authors suggest partial root-zone drying may not enhance major yield components in short vegetative phase indeterminate crops.
