Yield and Quality Characteristics of Different Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) Cultivars Grown under Field Conditions in Southwestern Germany (2018, background): “On the other hand, well-planned deficit irrigation strategies (vegetative phase) can be used to inure quinoa for not suffering too much during these sensitive developmental stages and therefore to stabilize or even enhance yields [52].”
Effects of Management Practices on Quinoa Growth, Seed Yield, and Quality (2020, background): “That is to say, the plant consumed most of the available nitrogen in the soil to meet its requirements, especially under the high nitrogen uptake treatments, suggesting that quinoa should be considered as a rotational crop to maintain the balance of soil nitrogen [14,15,61].”
Does root-sourced ABA play a role for regulation of stomata under drought in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.). (2009, background): “It is believed that quinoa yields can be stabilized with the help of deficit irrigation by applying only half of the irrigation water as required for full irrigation, replacing evapotranspired water (Geerts et al., 2008).”
