Abstract:Water stress is a major environmental factor affecting Citrus spp. and Rangpur lime is a drought-tolerant rootstock used to enhance orange yield in rainfed orchards. Here, we combined morpho-physiological analyses with metabolic profiling of roots and leaves of Valencia orange scions grafted onto Rangpur lime, Swingle citrumelo or Sunki mandarin rootstocks under water deficit. Our aim was to present a comprehensive spatio-temporal evaluation of citrus responses to drought and highlight the metabolic adjustment… Show more
