Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Actual evapotranspiration declined as water stress rose, spanning 303.6 mm at I0 to 509.3 mm at I100.
- Intervention effect Water stress significantly decreased melon yield.
- Association Increasing water stress increased melon reactive oxygen species (ROS).
- Association Increasing water stress increased melon antioxidant activities against stress.
- Observation I100 and I80 gave the best relative water content, stomatal conductance, yield and fruit characteristics.
- Recommendation The authors conclude irrigation water can be reduced by 20% under the study conditions.
- Observation The post-fruit-development period was most sensitive to water stress, with significant losses under moderate and severe stress.
