Tóm tắt

Under field conditions high temperatures are usually associated to high light intensity for periods of time that are getting longer because of global warming caused by climate change. These adverse conditions lead to significant reductions in yield and fruit quality in crops of great economic relevance such as citrus. In this work, the effect of high temperatures and high light intensity occurring alone or simultaneously has been studied in Carrizo citrange plants, a citrus genotype widely used as a rootstock, and the mitigating effect of kaolin (KL) evaluated. The combined stress conditions affected the plants in a unique manner at both, physiological and hormonal regulation levels, different to the effects of each individual stress. KL alleviated the deleterious effect of combined stress in different ways: (i) reducing leaf damage and abscission, (ii) improving physiological and gas exchange parameters, (iii) decreasing foliar proline content, (iv) increasing chlorophyll content, (v) preventing carotenoid degradation, and (vi) modulating levels of hormones and their precursors involved in plant responses to stress [abscisic acid (ABA), salicylic acid (SA), cinnamic acid (CA), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), jasmonic acid (JA) and 12-oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA)].
