Transpiration and Water Use Efficiency of Mediterranean <i>Eucalyptus</i> Genotypes Under Contrasting Irrigation Regimes by Juan C. Valverde, Rafael A. Rubilar, Alex Medina, Matías Pincheira, Verónica Emhart, Yosselin Espinoza, Daniel Bozo, Otávio C. Campoe

“…Low irrigation reduced CAI by 5–25% and Tr by 10–35%, while WUE responses varied across genotypes, ranging from a 12% decrease to a 48% increase. Based on their functional responses, genotypes were grouped as follows: (i) stable performers (Es, Ecg, Eb) exhibited high WUE and consistent Tr under both WR; (ii) partially plastic genotypes (EgH, EngH) combined moderate reductions in Tr with improved WUE; and (iii) water-sensitive genotypes (EgL, EngL, En) showed substantial declines in Tr alongside variable WUE gains. …”
