Effects of Different Irrigation Regimes on Root Growth and Physiological Characteristics of Mulch-Free Cotton in Southern Xinjiang by Feiyan Su, Ziyang Guo, Bingrong Wu, Jichuan Wang, Shuangrong Chen

“…It can be concluded that no mulching has a certain impact on cotton root distribution and leaf physiological function. When the irrigation amount is 450–525 mm and irrigation times is 10–12, it is beneficial for promoting root growth and plays a role in leaf physiological function, and the water use efficiency (WUE) is high, which can provide reference for the scientific water management of mulch-free cotton in production practice.…”
