Growth of shoots and roots, and interception of radiation by wheat and lupin crops on a shallow, duplex soil in response to time of sowing

Abstract: Crops of lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L. cv. Gungurru) and wheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Kulin or Spear) sown close to the break of the season and 3-6 weeks later were grown on a duplex soil at East Beverley, WA, over 3 seasons. The overall aim of the work was to examine the influence of time of sowing on growth and water use of the crops, and this paper reports their growth and yield. Early sowing resulted in greater shoot weight of all crops (up to 2.8 t/ha for lupin and 1.7 t/ha for wheat at maturity) and gr… Show more

“…We estimated root depth penetration rates of approximately 1.3 mm o C day −1 for both spring and winter wheat, close to some of the rates found by Kirkegaard and Lilley (2007) in kandosol soils, but higher than those found by Gregory and Eastham (1996) and Tennant (1976) on duplex sands over clay soils. Lower rates of rooting depth can be related to soil compaction (Dracup et al 1992;Unger and Kaspar 1994) or not fully wetted soil profiles (Kirkegaard and Lilley 2007).…”

“…The extinction coefficient describes the shape of the relationship between LAI and fraction of radiation intercepted. A value of K = 0.85, commonly reported (Gregory and Eastham 1996;Thomson and Siddique 1997), was used in the model. A value of RUE of 0.8 g/MJ solar radiation reported by Gregory and Eastham (1996) and Thomson and Siddique (1997) for narrow-leafed lupin cultivars was used in the model.…”

“…However, the link between root diameter and P uptake is still unclear. In general, temperate cereals, such as wheat and barley have higher root length and specific root length than legumes under different water regimens (Gregory and Eastham 1996). However, legumes could compensate for their lower root length through a higher P uptake per unit of root length, since legumes have shown higher organic exudation than wheat (Nuruzzaman et al, 2006;Pearse et al, 2006); this increases P mobility and uptake (Hinsinger, 2001;Yang et al, 2013).…”
