Effects of irrigation water salinity on evapotranspiration modified by leaching fractions in hot pepper plants

Abstract We investigated whether leaching fraction (LF) is able to modify the effects of irrigation water salinity (ECiw) on evapotranspiration (ET). We conducted an experiment with a completely randomized block design using five levels of ECiw and two LFs. Results showed that the electrical conduct...

We conducted an experiment with a completely randomized block design using five levels of ECiw and two LFs.
