Explore the data for this trait in the portal

• Label: Integrated water use efficiency
• Entity URI: https://w3id.org/APD/traits/trait_0020760
• Type: numeric
• Definition: The ratio [PATO:0001470] of biomass [ENVO:01000155] production [EnvThes:21071] (carbon dioxide [ENVO:01000451] fixation) to transpiration [ENVO:02500035] (water [CHEBI:15377] loss) across a given time interval [TimeInterval].;The rate of carbon dioxide fixation relative to water loss, calculated as biomass production / transpiration. This measures how much biomass is produced relative to transpiration across a given time interval, and is therefore an integrated measure of water use efficiency; WUE, transpiration ratio
• Additional comments: None
• units: g{biomass}/g{H2O}
• allowable range: 0.1 - 50 g{biomass}/g{H2O}
