Assunto(s): Olive tree; Acid jasmonic
Descrição
Despite the physiological defence strategies that olive trees dispose against summer stress, the projected climate change for the Mediterranean Basin characterized by severe summer conditions, with low rainfall, excessive heat load, and high irradiance levels, right affect this crop. New cropping practices allowing better water use efficiency and protection against summer stress as with the introduction of foliar jasmonic acid were pursued. The study was conducted in an organic orchardat Quinta do Prado, Lodões, Vila Flor(41 °20'13.3"N, 7°05'54.2"W) under sustained deficit irrigation and shows the impact of the application of jasmonic acid (100 pM) on leaf gas exchange and yield during the 2017 season.
