TI - Water-use efficiency in crop production SN - 0006-3568 PY - 1984/// KW - Plant production KW - Water use efficiency KW - AGROVOC N2 - Plant biomass accumulation, and consequently yield, was shown to be inextricably linked to transpiration. The ratio of plant productivity to water loss, water-use efficiency, was very conservative. Only a few variables are available for manipulating water-use efficiency, and these have already been exploited to a large degree T2 - Bioscience ER -
