Sap flow, leaf gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence of container-grown cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) trees subjected to repeated cycles of soil drying

Abstract: Summary. Cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) is an emerging horticultural crop in tropical northern Australia. Supplementary watering is required during the dry season to achieve high yields but irrigation guidelines are not well defined. As an introduction to large-scale field experiments which will aim to define the irrigation requirements for cashew, this experiment was conducted on small, container-grown cashew trees to examine their response to drying soil and to evaluate a range of techniques for measurin… Show more

“…As a consequence, the values of effective quantum yield of PSII, that were high in early morning, decreased to 0.2 and remained at low values until 16h. Here again, these values of effective quantum yield were similar to those reported in other studies (Blaikie & Chacko, 1998;Blaikie et al, 2001). Since no damages to the photosynthetic system were evident, the photoinhibition in young cashew plants was effective in protecting the photochemical apparatus, at the high irradiance levels, to which plants were exposed in their natural environments.…”
