| Abstract/Contents: | Reviews the water-supplying capability of root systems in field situations with reference to maize, wheat, perennial ryegrass, cocksfoot and cotton. Presents a model of water uptake by roots. Discusses the components of the model and shows how situations in the real world differ from those inherent in models. Also discusses "techniques for, and possible consequences of, altering various components of the model." Concludes that "the researcher must examine closely plants, soils, and environments in order to arrive at the most logical choice of a technique to alter plant water status in a beneficial manner." |
