Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation WL-323 had the best ecological adaptability to sandy soil, with a large root system, high forage output and high WUE.
- Observation Siriver had relatively strong drought resistance with moderate output and WUE.
- Observation Guyuan had the lowest ecological adaptability to sandy soil among the three varieties.
- Recommendation Rational distribution of alfalfa varieties and soil moisture adjustment may help on sandy land.
- Observation Alfalfa water consumption features at the various growing stages changed with moisture conditions and varieties.
- Association Plant moisture stress was remarkably negatively correlated with soil moisture content.
- Observation Chlorophyll content in leaves did not change remarkably among moisture conditions and varieties.
- Intervention effect Plant height, branch number and total branch length of alfalfa tended to increase with soil moisture.
- Intervention effect Leaf number, root number and root depth of alfalfa tended to increase with soil moisture.
- Intervention effect Root collar diameter and root dry weight of alfalfa tended to increase with soil moisture.
