Abstract
⺠Alternate furrow irrigation (AFI) stimulated the growth and metabolism of roots on the slope. ⺠AFI significantly increased root tip number and surface area of fine roots and promoted roots to deeper soil on the slope. ⺠AFI increased the effective absorption area of root system. ⺠AFI improved water use efficiency without significant reduction of grain yield.
