    Abstract: A greenhouse study of deficit irrigation was conducted to understand the fraction of optimum evapotranspiration water requirement that limits growth and development of Roma tomato. Seedlings of the crop were germinated and transplanted into 20 cm diameter pots in a mixture of 2: 1 topsoil and perlite. The 200 seedlings were arranged in a randomized... Show More
