Response of grapevines to partial drying of the root system / Peter Ronald Dry.

Bibliography: p. 261-273. / vi, 273 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 30 cm. / Title page, contents and abstract only. The complete thesis in print form is available from the University Library. / The general hypothesis tested in this study was that: 'partial drying of the root system of grapevines will result in reduced vegetative growth with beneficial effects for fruit yield, fruit composition and water-use efficiency'. Previously published work has suggested that partial drying of the root system may give rise to non-dydraulic root-derived signals capable of changing leaf development and transpiration. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Horticulture, Viticulture and Oenology, 1998
