The Higher Water Absorption Capacity of Small Root System Improved the Yield and Water Use Efficiency of Maize

The root system in plants absorbs water and minerals. However, the relationship among root size, yield, and water use efficiency (WUE) is controversial. Two pot experiments were conducted to explore these relationships by using two maize varieties with contrasting root sizes and reducing the root–sh...
