Sensitivity analysis results. (A) and (B) Simulated CBZ concentrations in the fruits as a function of α and K_f, respectively. (C) and (D) Simulated root solute uptake as a function of α and K_f, respectively. (E) Simulated average pressure head (pF = log(|h|) in the root zone as a function of α. (F) Simulated average CBZ concentrations in the liquid phase in the root zone as a function of K_f. The red dashed lines indicate the Feddes’ parameters (Table 1). The plots were obtained by performing numerical simulations with three different values of α₁ and K_f. In particular, the median solution reported in Table 1 was used as a reference, and only the values of α₁ and K_f were alternatively changed to match the minimum and the maximum listed in Table 1.
