Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Drought decreased foliar biomass of olive plants.
- Intervention effect Drought drastically decreased leaf area and leaf specific area of stressed olive plants.
- Association Drought inhibited the photosynthetic machinery of olive plants.
- Observation 20 leaf proteins of olive were identified whose levels change in response to drought.
- Observation Foliar nitrogen levels of olive plants remained stable under drought.
- Mechanism Stable foliar nitrogen in olive under drought is possibly due to nitrogen translocation from roots to leaves.
