Deficit irrigation for reducing agricultural water use. (2006, background): “The control of vegetative growth is of paramount importance in the production of high-quality wine grapes (Loveys et al., 2004), and it has been shown that PRD controls canopy growth and is advantageous over full irrigation in wine production (McCarthy et al., 2002).”
Mechanisms underlying plant resilience to water deficits: prospects for water-saving agriculture. (2004, background): “When water deficits start to build up, leaf stomatal conductance usually decreases faster than carbon assimilation, leading to increased water use efficiency , WUE (Chaves et al., 2004).”
Review Article:Root development in horticultural plants grown under abiotic stress conditions – a review (2011, background): “Dehydration of fine roots may promote the production of these signals which may alter plant growth (Loveys and Davies, 2004; Santos et al., 2007).”
Global effects of soil and climate on leaf photosynthetic traits and rates (2015, background): “This ‘mass-flow’ hypothesis is generally thought to apply more to soil inorganic N than to the less mobile P (Cramer et al., 2009), but higher gs has also been observed under P deficiency for some species (Raven et al., 2004).”
Impact of Kaolin particle film and water deficit on wine grape water use efficiency and plant water relations. (2010, methodology): “…to SLWP) is also directly related to E. Isotopic carbon discrimination (D) is highly negatively correlated to WUE (Bacon, 2004; Bongi et al., 1994; Condon et al., 1990; Gibberd et al., 2001; Glenn et al., 2000, 2006; Jones, 2004) and reduced gS is a key mechanism of increasing WUE (Bacon, 2004).”
Drought Stress in Wheat during Flowering and Grain-filling Periods (2014, background): “For instance, they may avoid the adversities of drought by flowering earlier and/or decreasing growth duration or they may have better and more efficient water uptake by conserving available water by reducing canopy size and regulating stomatal openings (Jones, 2004; Tambussi et al., 2007).”
Improving water use efficiency in grapevines: potential physiological targets for biotechnological improvement. (2010, background): “It has to be pointed out that improving leaf-level WUE may not necessarily result in improving plant and yield WUE (Jones 2004), due to the interference of canopy and ambient processes (Figure 2).”
Improving water use in crop production (2008, background): “Firstly, many fruit crops can show excessive vegetative vigour (Loveys et al. 2004), which can lead to high rates of water loss and development of damaging plant water deficits.”
Regulation of Transpiration to Improve Crop Water Use (2009, background): “WUE is expressed by various units based on how CO2 assimilation and transpiration are assessed (Jones, 2004; Tambussi et al., 2007) (Table 1).”
