Whole-Plant Water Use of Cotton Genotypes with Contrasting Water Economies.

The objective of this study is to characterize the water economy of a selected group of cotton genotypes and discern the associated anatomical attributes controlling their water use. This paper presents data of genotypes exhibiting contrasting water economies in an attempt to demonstrate the potential of the methodology used. The progression of daily transpiration of two divergent genotypes exposed to well-watered and water-stressed conditions are shown and briefly discussed.
