Improving water use efficiency of cotton
Date Issued:1998-01-31
Abstract
Overall, the project has demonstrated the following highlights: * The okra leaf trait was associated with superior field yield under raingrown conditions. That result is consistent with some leaf physiological water use efficiency measurements. * Full season types were superior for raingrown yield. Rooting depth was one factor associated with that result. * Some physiological water use efficiency traits have significant genetic differences and may be of value for use in choosing parents and/or screening segregating populations
