The use of midday leaf water potential for scheduling deficit irrigation in vineyards (2005, background): “These long-term effects on fruit growth have been observed in RDI experiments with trees (Girona et al. 2003, 2005), and has been associated with carbon storage depletion in almond (Esparza et al. 2001).”
Response of apricot trees to deficit irrigation strategies (2009, background): “…quality of some stone and nut fruit crops (Mitchell and Chalmers 1982; Mitchell et al. 1984; Boland et al. 1993; Romero et al. 2004) both in deep (Girona et al. 2005) and shallow soils (Girona et al. 2003), as well as in citrus trees (Domingo et al. 1996; GonzálezAltozano and Castel 1999, 2000).”
Usefulness of establishing trunk diameter based reference lines for irrigation scheduling in almond trees (2009, background): “strategies that have been successfully applied to almond trees are based on saving water during the kernel-filling stage (Girona et al. 2005) and postharvest season (Romero et al.”
Deficit irrigation in fruit trees and vines in Spain. (2010, methodology): “Reductions in shoot elongation and trunk cross sectional area in response to water deficits lead to reductions in tree size and smaller canopies (Girona et al., 2005a,b; Intrigliolo and Castel, 2005; Marsal et al., 2008a; Pérez-Pastor et al., 2009).”
