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.
