Figure 3. Effects of deficient treatments on leaf relative water content of maize in 2015 and 2016.
L, low planting density (A in 2015 and D in 2016); M, medium planting density (B in 2015 and E in 2016); H, high planting density (C in 2015 and F in 2016); NI, no irrigation; IV, irrigation at the 11-leaf stage; IS, irrigation at the silking stage; IVS, irrigation at the 11-leaf and silking stages; BV11, AV11, BSK, ASK and FL means before supplementary irrigation at 11-leaf stage, after supplementary irrigation at 11-leaf stage, before supplementary irrigation at silking stage, after supplementary irrigation at silking stage, and supplementary irrigation at filling stage, respectively; Vertical bars represent LSD values (P < 0.05).
