Selecting proper planting density can optimize light interception and increase crop water productivity. This research investigated the planting density effect on the evapotranspiration (ETc) and yield of greenhouse grown tomato in northwest China during December 2010 to June 2011 (first season),...

In order to investigate crop coefficient (Kc) and evapotranspiration (ET) of grain maize modified by planting density, a field experiment was conducted from March to October in 2012 and 2013 in an arid region of northwest China. Five planting densities, i.e. 67,500, 82,500, 97,500, 112,500 and...

In order to investigate better irrigation scheduling with the compromise between yield and quality of greenhouse-grown tomato under limit water supply, two experiments of different irrigation treatments were conducted in the arid region of northwest China during spring to summer in 2008 (2008...

Deficit irrigation is widely used in tomato production because of water shortage. Many studies indicate that tomato yield is reduced but the fruit quality is improved under certain degree of water deficit. In order to investigate the quantitative relationship between tomato yield, fruit quality...

Nowadays more and more attentions are paid to fruit quality in the production of tomato. In order to better understand the effects of deficit irrigation on tomato yield and fruit quality, four years of deficit irrigation experiments were investigated to simulate water-yield and water-fruit...
