| Abstract:
Three olive cultivars Souri, Muhasan and Barnea were reciprocally used as scions and rootstock under dry land and 2 levels of irrigation. After 10 years from planting, the rootstocks did not show any significant effect on tree vigor, shape and fruit production. The level of water availability had a marked effect on all growth and production parameters including fatty acid composition. | |
