Abstract: With future climatic scenarios foreseeing increased crop water demands and reduced irrigation water availability, a deeper knowledge on the dynamics of water uptake and translocation inside plants is needed. Little is known about the time interval existing between the irrigation water supply and the presence of irrigation water inside trees, and whether the dripper localization can affect water uptake and translocation dynamics. Another research gap concerns the redistribution of irrigation water in the canopy following irrigation localized to one side of the tree.
