Night-time leaf wetting process was analyzed in relation to micrometeorological conditions in a semi-arid cornfield and its effect was examined in the following morning with reference to the leaf-to-air humidity gradient which is a driving force in transpiration. Leaf wetness occurred due to dew formation under clear and calm night conditions which decreased canopy surface temperature to the air dew-point...
Catch crop cultivation coupled with subsequent flood activity is an environmental friendly method of removing nutrient salts from soil in greenhouse. However, in comparison with the usual fallow period in greenhouse horticulture in Japan, a longer time is required for cultivation and soil drying after flooding. To minimize such time while retaining catch crop performance, temporal flooding was conducted...
Salinization of crop fields is a pressing matter for sustainable agriculture under desertification and is largely attributed to root absorptive functions of the major crops such as maize. The rates of water and ion absorption of intact root system of maize plants were measured under the salinized condition, and the salt absorptive function of maize roots was analyzed by applying different two kinetic...
