Irrigation regimes affect early root development, shoot growth and yields of maize (Zea mays L.) in tropical minor seasons

Moisture stress is an important factor affecting field-grown maize in the tropics, especially in the minor dry seasons, and irrigation is required for successful crop growth and yields. Field experiments evaluated the impact of four irrigation regimes ranging from 3 to 21-day intervals on growth of...
