Enhanced Water Stress Index (WSI) in the Min Treatment During the Jointing-to-Flowering Stage

During the period from jointing to flowering, the WSI value for the Min treatment exhibits a notable increase, averaging at 0.53. This value is considerably higher compared to the Con and Opt treatments, which recorded values of 0.16 and 0.19, respectively. These findings suggest that the Min treatment significantly mitigates water stress during this critical developmental stage.
