Abstract

This paper aims to evaluate kaolin application as an effective tool for controlling stomatal conductance (gs) and transpiration rate (E), in order to enhance tolerance to water stress and salinity and to improve water productivity. Five experiments were carried out under open field conditions in Southern Italy in order to evaluate the effect of kaolin application on the physiological responses of well watered bean and Clementine, tomato under three salinity levels and two irrigation regimes and to try to overcome the vegetables’ transplant shock under two irrigation regimes.
