“…Further, Roughani exhibited the highest percentage of dry matter. The 50% deficit irrigation decreased both growth and pomological parameters in all cultivars, with a particularly strong effect on the cultivar Mission, which is particularly sensitive to irrigation regime as previously demonstrated by [28]. Indeed, the vegetative characteristics of olive trees are correlated with the genotype and the irrigation water regimes, since the amount of received water can affect the vegetative growth of olive trees.…”

Background Drought stress is among the most serious threats jeopardizing the economic yield of crop plants in Iran. In particular, in response to withholding irrigation, the reduction in performance and quality of a precious plant such as the olive tree is remarkable. Therefore, the selection of cultivars that are resistant or tolerant to drought has been recognized as one of the most effective long-term strategies for sustainably alleviating the adverse effects of this stress. In this view, our study evaluated the response of 8 olive cultivars including 4 elite native cultivars (Zard Aliabad, Roughani, Dezful, and Shengeh) and 4 foreign cultivars (Manzanilla, Sevillana, Konservolia, and Mission) to water shortage in the Dallaho Olive Research station of Sarpole-Zahab in Kermanshah province in 2020. Olive trees underwent 3 levels of irrigation treatment including 100% full irrigation (control), 75%, and 50% deficit irrigation. Results Based on the results, 50% deficit irrigation decreased both growth and pomological traits, but determined the highest dry matter percentage. As the severity of drought stress increased, with an accumulation of sodium and malondialdehyde, an incremental increase in osmolytes was observed, as well as an enhancement of the activity of antioxidant enzymes (peroxidase and catalase). In contrast, full irrigation led to an increase in photosynthetic pigments, calcium, and potassium. Dezful and Konservolia cultivars revealed a significantly higher growth rate, correlated in the former to higher levels of chlorophyll, compatible compounds, total phenolic content, relative water content, potassium to sodium ratio, catalase, and peroxidase activities compared with other cultivars. Konservolia showed the best yield parameters under 75% and 100% irrigation regimes, correlated to higher chlorophyll, potassium, and total phenolic content (in particular at 75% ET). Conclusions Generally, the selection of more resilient or tolerant cultivars to sustain water scarcity stress is a widely operative solution to extend rainfed orchards in semi-arid environments. Our study showed that Dezful and Konservolia had the best adaptive mechanisms to cope with the detrimental effects of drought stress.

“…To optimize water use, it is crucial to employ effective methods such as cultivating tolerant varieties ( In horticulture, utilizing a de cit irrigation strategy can be a bene cial approach for enhancing water use e ciency. This method involves implementing irrigation during growth stages that are less sensitive to drought stress, as outlined by studies conducted by Iniesta et al (2009) During the appropriate stages of plant growth, applying de cit irrigation can lead to reduced vegetative growth, better fruit quality, and increased economic pro ts, according to studies by Tognetti et al (2006) and Gholami and Zahedi (2021). When water is scarce during the owering stages, there is a decline in owering, in orescences, and perfect owers, as shown in studies by Rapoport et al (2012) and Tadayon and Hosseini (2022).…”

Research has shown that moderate regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) can enhance the fruit and oil yield of olive trees in Mediterranean conditions. However, there is limited research on the effects of deficit irrigation on olive trees in marginal regions. To address this, a study was conducted on the Zard olive cultivar over two consecutive years. Six irrigation regimes were tested, including control (C) (100% ETc) during the growing season, sustained deficit irrigation (SDI1) at 75% ETc throughout the growing season, regulated deficit irrigation (RDI1) at 75% ETc from 4 to 9 weeks after full bloom, sustained deficit irrigation (SDI2) at 50% ETc throughout the growing season, regulated deficit irrigation (RDI2) at 50% ETc from 4 to 9 weeks after full bloom, and regulated deficit irrigation (RDI3) at 50% ETc 2 weeks before harvest. The results showed that sustained and regulated deficit irrigation negatively impacted flower number and perfect flowers in inflorescence, except for RDI3. The study found that the fruit set was not significantly impacted by the irrigation treatments RDI1 and RDI3 compared to the control. However, the irrigation treatment of SDI2 resulted in the most significant reduction in both fruit weight and pulp-to-pit ratio. Fruit yield and oil content did show significant differences among all treatments. Overall, the study showed a 25% reduction in water usage during the 4 to 9 weeks after flowering or 2 weeks before harvesting did not significantly affect fruit yield compared to the control treatment. A minor reduction in applied water (RDI1 and RDI3) is recommended for semiarid regions (excluding Mediterranean regions) to achieve high fruit and oil content.
