“…To minimize hypoxic stress in fruit trees that require grafting, more tolerant rootstocks are selected [101]. Using rootstocks from other species, such as plum (Prunus domestica) and some peach and apricot (Prunus armeniaca) varieties, has led to greater resistance to this problem [102][103][104]. According to Kongsri et al (2020) [105], guava plants produced by seedlings are more tolerant to waterlogging than those propagated by branch stacking.…”

Τhe production of fresh fruit as well as olive orchards is increasing around the world, in order to meet the global demand for both fruits and olive products. This results in the spread and establishment of fruit and olive tree cultivation in areas where they were not found before, for example, plains and lowlands prone to waterlogging. Climate change is having a significant impact on the natural environment. Agricultural open-field crops have less growth and yield under these harsh weather conditions. Nowadays, unpredictable rainfall more often exposes field crops to waterlogging on a regular basis. This is a very stressful factor which can cause a reduction in yield and even total crop elimination. In this review, the morphological and physiological parameters affected by waterlogging are developed in order to understand better how olive and other fruit crops respond to waterlogging conditions and how this affects their development and productivity. Having a better understanding of these mechanisms can help us design strategies and approaches to increase fruit crop resistance to waterlogging stress.

This work aimed to assess the performance of different thermal-infrared (TIR)-based physiological indicators (PI) as an alternative to the stem water potential (Ψs) and stomatal conductance (gs) for monitor the water status of grafted drip-irrigated 'Regina' cherry trees. In addition, we evaluated the usefulness of piecewise linear regression for nding PI thresholds that are important for post-harvest regulated de cit irrigation (RDI) management. With this purpose, an irrigation experiment was carried out in the post-harvest period. Trees were submitted to three Ψs-based water stress treatments: T0 (fruit grower management treatment, or control) (Ψs > -1.0 MPa, without-to-low water stress); T1 (low to mild water stress treatment = -1.0 > Ψs > -1.5 MPa); and T2 (mild-to-severe water stress treatment = -1.5 > Ψs > -2.0 MPa).The results indicated that the trees were more stressed in T2 than in T0. In the former, averages of Ψs and gs were -1.75 MPa and 372 mmol m -2 s -1 , whereas they were -1.56 MPa and 427 mmol m -2 s -1 in T0. The piecewise model allowed determining the water stress thresholds of almost all studied PI. The breakpoints yielded by this analysis indicated that trees at Ψs lower than -1.5 MPa had a gs lower than 484 mmol m -2 s -1 . These results also showed that TIR-based PI, whose equations incorporate a temperature normalization, are a better indicator of cherry tree water status than those without normalization. The derived TIR-based PI threshold values could be used as a reference for managing dripirrigated 'Regina' cherry trees.
