Alternate partial root-zone irrigation with high irrigation frequency improves root growth and reduces unproductive water loss by apple trees in arid north-west China
Alternate partial root-zone irrigation (APRI) can improve water use efficiency in arid areas.However, the effectiveness and outcomes of different frequencies of APRI on water uptake capacity and physiological water use have not been reported.A Acoustic Bronze two-year field experiment was conducted with two irrigation amounts (400 and 500 mm) and t
