FIGURE 3

Effect of crop establishment and tillage management (CETM) and P-fertilization practices on (A,B) stomatal conductance and transpiration efficiency; (C,D) photosynthetic rate and transpiration rate at flowering stage of maize and wheat under MWCS. The vertical bars represent LSD0.05 values. M1, flat bed–conventional tillage (FBCT) both in maize and wheat; M2, raised bed–CT (RBCT) in maize and RB–zero tillage (RBZT) in wheat; M3, FBZT both in maize and wheat; M4, permanent raised bed–ZT (PRBZT) both in maize and wheat. S1-P100, 100% P as basal; S2-P50 + 2FSP, 50% P as basal (P50) + 2 foliar sprays of phosphorus (2FSP) as DAP (2%) at knee-high stage (KHS) and pre-tasseling stage (PTS) in maize and at tillering stage (TS) and pre-flowering stage (PFS) in wheat; S3-P50 + PSB + AMF, P50 + PSB + AM-fungi (AMF); S4-P50 + PSB + AMF + 2 FSP, P50 + PSB + AMF + 2FSP at KHS and PTS in maize and at TS and PFS in wheat; S5-P0, 100% N and K with no P (P0) as control.
