The Influence Of Irrigating With Saline Water On The Energy Status Of Water In Soil And Plant, Rolando H. Braun
The Influence Of Irrigating With Saline Water On The Energy Status Of Water In Soil And Plant, Rolando H. Braun
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
- Changes in the energy status of water that occurred in Milville silt loam and in bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) plants growing on it , during two consecutive 6-day periods while being irrigated with saline solutions, were studied.
- Total soil water potential (Ψ soil) (measured with thermocouple psychrometers), matric-potential (Ψm) (measured with tensiometers) were considered. In leaf samples, the total water potential (leaf) and the osmotic potential (Ψπ)--after freezing-- were determined with thermocouple psychrometers; by difference, the pressure potential (Ψp) was obtained.
- There is no evidence of close relationship between changes taking place in …
The Influence Of Soil Moisture Regimes And Atmospheric Environments On Transpiration And The Energy Status Of Water In Plants, Sampatrao A. Gavande
The Influence Of Soil Moisture Regimes And Atmospheric Environments On Transpiration And The Energy Status Of Water In Plants, Sampatrao A. Gavande
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
Plant responses to different soil moisture regimes have been extensively studied. Because of interactions between the soil, plant and climatic factors, few convincing generalizations concerning the influence of soil water on the transpiration of water by plants have been established. Generally single factors or at most the interaction of two have been studied at any one time. Useful theories describing the conditions of water retention in plant tissues and movement of water through plants have been proposed. Equally useful theories have been suggested for describing the retention and transmission of water in soil. The integration of these theories and their …
