Benefits of alternate partial root-zone irrigation on growth, water and nitrogen use efficiencies modified by fertilization and soil water status in maize (2007, background): “…laboratory and field experiments also indicated that the APRI did not reduce photosynthetic rate significantly, but decreased transpiration rate, thus it increased leaf WUE (Kang et al. 2000b; Kang and Zhang 2004; Liang et al. 1997; Pan and Kang 2000; Wu et al. 1999), which is similar to our study.”
Irrigation scheduling: advantages and pitfalls of plant-based methods. (2004, background): “Applications of such techniques to extensive arable crops are in their infancy, although there are some exciting preliminary reports (Kang et al., 2000, 2003).”
Deficit irrigation for reducing agricultural water use. (2006, background): “The alternate wetting in PRD reduces drainage losses relative to a regime that always wets the same side of the plant row (Kang et al., 2000).”
