• Yield, Mineral Composition, Water Relations, and Water Use Efficiency of Grafted Mini-watermelon Plants Under Deficit Irrigation (2008, result): “Those results are consistent with the findings of Simonne et al. (1998), Kirnak et al. (2001, 2002), and Kaya et al. (2003) who reported for several vegetable crops that water stress has a wider role in reducing leaf macronutrient concentrations.”
• Host Response to Osmotic Stresses: Stomatal Behaviour and Water Use Efficiency of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Plants (2010, background): “There are several reports in the literature showing an increase of plant WUE by the AM symbiosis either under well watered or osmotic stress conditions (RuizLozano et al. 1995a; Kaya et al. 2003; Khan et al. 2008).”

(2003), who reported that water stress significantly decreased the AM colonization by Glomus clarum in watermolen plants.”
