Water Status of Olive Trees
Leaf water potential (') and leaf conductance (gl) were measured in the field in 20-year-old olive trees subjected to two treatments of soil water content (dry-farming and drip-irrigation). Differences between treatments of up to 0.35 MPa were observed in predawn , values. At midday, these differences were of up to 0.83 MPa. However, no significant differences between treatments were observed i...
متن کاملFruit load governs transpiration of olive trees.
We tested the hypothesis that whole-tree water consumption of olives (Olea europaea L.) is fruit load-dependent and investigated the driving physiological mechanisms. Fruit load was manipulated in mature olives grown in weighing-drainage lysimeters. Fruit was thinned or entirely removed from trees at three separate stages of growth: early, mid and late in the season. Tree-scale transpiration, c...
متن کاملThe Role of Olive Trees Distribution and Fruit Bearing in Olive Fruit Fly Infestation
The role of fruit bearing percentage in olive fruit fly infestation is investigated through a simulation model where the spatial law of dispersion distances were modeled via an appropriate exponential law. The dispersal of olive fruit flies was simulated for two distinct cases, an olive grove with no olive fruits and an olive grove with 100% olive fruit bearing. Results showed that when no oliv...
متن کاملMonumental olive trees of Cyprus contributed to the establishment of the contemporary olive germplasm
Even though Cyprus was an important crossing point for the westward spread of olive, and one of the primary regions of domestication, its genetic recourses remain uncharted at a great extent. Throughout the centuries, a number of ancient olive trees remain in the same orchards, contributing to Cypriot oleiculture and society. In an attempt to explore this monumental genetic pool, a survey was c...
متن کاملSustainable cultivation of olive trees by reusing olive mill wastes after effective co-composting treatment processes
Olive oil production is associated with extremely polluting byproducts causing serious environmental problems in most Mediterranean countries. These highly polluting residues are currently disposed of in the soil, rivers or lakes or where treatment methods have been applied, they were proven insufficient or nonfeasible under the Greek situation. On the other hand strict EU environmental legisla...
