e1“severely limits olive (Olea europaea L.) production”
e2“drought was imposed by total water depletion for 30 days and compared to well-watered plants”
e3“drought induced a decrement decrease in relative water content, reaching critical values below 40%”

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.
