Enhanced Photosynthetic Capacity, Osmotic Adjustment and Antioxidant Defenses Contribute to Improve Tolerance to Moderate Water Deficit and Recovery of Triploid Citrus Genotypes

Enhanced Photosynthetic Capacity, Osmotic Adjustment and Antioxidant Defenses Contribute to Improve Tolerance to Moderate Water Deficit and Recovery of Triploid Citrus Genotypes

Currently, drought stress is a major issue for crop productivity, and future climate models predict a rise in frequency and severity of drought episodes. Polyploidy has been related to improved tolerance of plants to environmental stresses. In Citrus breeding programs, the use of triploidy is an eff...
