(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Three crop moisture stress indices (CMSI1, CMSI2 and CMSI3) are proposed. In computing index 1 and 2, stress is assumed to occur when the actual to potential transpiration ratio (AT/PT) falls below a critical level, while ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Comparative drought resistances of eleven major warm-season turfgrasses were evaluated in the field after withholding irrigation. The relative importance of the drought avoidance and tolerance mechanisms was also investigated. ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Several maize genotypes were grown in College Station and Etter, Texas in 1983 and College Station in 1984. Irrigations were scheduled to provide full and limited irrigation plots at each site. Each genotype was also ...

(2011-08-08)Population based association studies in crops that were established by domestication and early breeding can be a valuable basis for the identification of QTLs. A case control design in a population is an ideal way to ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)Drought resistance and biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) potential of 437 diverse cowpea genotypes were determined. Plants were grown in irrigated and dryland plots in 1979 and 1980 near Lubbock, Texas. Drought resistance ...

(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)Cowpeas, Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp., are considered relatively drought resistant as compared to other grain crops, yet substantial seed yield reductions in response to drought stress, especially during reproductive ...
