- Intervention effect Severe water deficit reduced orange leaf CO2 assimilation.
- Intervention effect Severe water deficit reduced orange transpiration and chlorophyll content.
- Intervention effect Growth and gas exchange were most affected at 75% depletion of available water.
- Observation Orange genotypes varied in drought tolerance.
- Observation Washington Navel was considered drought sensitive based on gas exchange.
- Observation Shamouti was considered drought tolerant based on gas exchange.
- Observation Red Blood was affected by drought to a lesser extent.
- Intervention effect ABA did not affect growth, chlorophyll content or gas exchange under well-watered conditions.
- Intervention effect At 1mM ABA, Washington Navel had lower leaf assimilation, transpiration and chlorophyll, especially under severe drought.
- Intervention effect At 1mM ABA, Washington Navel plants were taller, especially under severe drought.
