Advances and prospects: biotechnologically improving crop water use efficiency.

Critical reviews in biotechnology - 1 Sept 2011

Zhengbin Zhang, Ping Xu, Hongbo Shao, Mengjun Liu, Zhenyan Fu, Liye Chu

Abstract excerpt

Bio-water saving can be defined as the reduction of crop water consumption employing biological measures. This is the focus of efforts to save water in agriculture. Different levels of water-use efficiency (WUE) have been developed. The genetic diversity of WUE has been confirmed in several crops. WUE is the basis of bio-watering and physiological WUE is the key. The degree to develop physiological WUE potential...
