Description

Plants were subjected to progressive water stress by withholding irrigation to create a gradient of soil moisture conditions. This experimental design allowed examination of plant responses across a range of drought severity levels.

Typical Equipment

  • WeatherPort greenhouse
  • Hydrosense II soil moisture sensor
  • 6 inch plastic pots

Output Measurements

  • soil volumetric water content gradients
  • drought stress levels
