“…Our results are in agreement with this of Teixeira et al (2014). These authors illustrated strong linear relationship between the use efficiencies-of radiation interception and of transpired water, and they affirmed that the slope of this relationship is analogous to the inverse of crop conductance.…”

“…In fact, the maximum values of WUE were recorded under the nitrogen treatment of 150 kg N ha -1 followed by 100, 50 and 0 kg N ha -1 treatments. Many researchers affirmed that restraint nitrogen rate reduced water use efficiency for maize (Teixeira et al, 2014) and for temperate cereals such as wheat and barley crops (Cabrera-Bosquet et al, 2007;Cooper et al, 1983). Strong linear relationship between radiation use efficiency and water use efficiency were reported for sunflower and spring wheat (Sadras et al, 1991;Caviglia & Sadras, 2001).…”

The effects of four nitrogen rates (N 1 = 150 kg N ha -1 ; N 2 = 100 kg N ha -1 ; N 3 = 50 kg N ha -1 and N 4 = 0 kg N ha -1 ) on Total dry matter (TDM), photosynthetically active radiation intercepted (PARabs), Water Consumption (WC), Radiation use efficiency (RUE), Water use efficiency (WUE) and the relation between photosynthetically active radiation intercepted and water consumption for Durum Wheat were investigated during three growing seasons (2005-2006, 2006-2007 and 2007-2008). Results showed that, the cumulative PARabs increase with nitrogen levels. In fact, N 1 treatment recorded the highest cumulative PAR abs (920.2, 1041.5 and 1031.3 MJ m -2 ) and the lowest (812.7, 999.4 and 954 MJ m -2 ) obtained under N 4 treatment, respectively for three growing seasons. Also, RUE, TDM and WUE have increased with nitrogen rates. The highest RUE observed under the N 1 (from 1.32 to 1.43 g MJ -1 ) and the lowest under N 4 (from 1.1 to 1.27 g MJ -1 ). N 1 treatment improved the TDM compared to N 3 and N 4 rates, respectively from 11.7 to 12.6% and from 15 to 22.3%. The highest WUE were obtained under the N 1 (from 2.8 to 3.1 kg m -3 ) and the lowest were observed under N 4 (from 2.4 to 3 kg m -3 ). The relationship between cumulative PAR abs and cumulative water consumption was linearly regression with a high correlation coefficient (R 2 ) which indicates that cumulative PAR abs increases when water consumption increases.

“…It also reduces photosynthesis by inducing leaf senescence, which in turn leads to a decrease in the light use efficiency. Nitrogen and water limitation affected biomass yield, the efficiencies of radiation, water and nitrogen use in maize crops (Teixeira et al, 2014). Fletcher et al (2013) affirmed that over nitrogen deficit the RUE, decreased by 22% when no N-fertilizer was applied.…”

Abstract-The (8.9; 9.9 and 7.9%) respectively for the three treatments (F1; F2 and F3). The nitrogen deficit affects negatively thePARabs. An improvement of 13. 2%, 11.2% and 12.2% of the F1 compared to the F3, respectively for the three water treatments (T1, T2 and T3). The T2 has no effect on RUE TDM. Conversely, the PRD50 has led to a reduction in RUE TDM. This decline referee against T1 was equal to (12.7; 17.4 and 21.5%) respectively for the three treatments (F1; F2 and F3). For RUEGY statistical analysis showed significant (P < 0.05) difference between the three irrigation treatments (T0, T1 and T2) for the three nitrogen treatments (F1; F2 and F3). The T2 and the PRD50 has led to a reduction in RUE GY. This decrease judge against T1 respectively for the two treatments (F2 and F3) was equal to (14.9 and 21.5%) and (19.6 and 31.2%).

Few studies have investigated the effects of N application in a wheat/maize rotation system on soil moisture, residual nitrate‐N (NR), growth, grain yield (GY) and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in northwest China under dryland conditions. A five‐season (June 2013–October 2015) field experiment was conducted using N fertilizer rates of 0, 86, 172 and 258 kg ha−1 during the summer maize growing season, and 0, 105, 210 and 315 kg ha−1 during the winter wheat growing season. Soil NR increased sharply as N rates rose, but soil moisture storage decreased. Summer maize under the high N treatment suffered from increased NR levels and low soil water at the vegetative stage. The dry matter levels increased as the N supply rose during the wheat season. When the N application rate was below 210 and 172 kg N ha−1 for wheat and maize, respectively, yield increased as the N application rose, but excessive N applications negatively affected maize and wheat grain yields. NUE decreased significantly as time progressed and N rates increased. The most appropriate N rates were 172 kg N ha−1 for maize and 210 kg N ha−1 for wheat, which led to relatively good soil moisture uptake and NR conditions.
