“…Oil palm is susceptible to water deficit which can differentially affect growth traits according to the genotype and drought stress severity (Legros et al, 2009;Cha-um et al, 2013). This has been demonstrated in several study where seedlings of oil palm genotypes were evaluated based on growth parameters under drought stress (Silva et al, 2017;Duangpan et al, 2018). Indeed, Duangpan et al (2018) and Labo et al (2016) set in their studies that oil palm seedlings are more susceptible to abiotic stress, in this case drought, than adult palms.…”

Oil palm is an important crop largely produced in the world. However, its productivity is highly impaired by drought in Benin (West Africa). This study aimed at identifing the genotypic diversity in the response to drought conditions among ten oil palm genotypes (L1 to L10) in adult stage based on five predefined drought damage traits: number of green broken leaves (NGBL), number of folded leaves (NFL), number of unopened leaves (NUL) number of base leaves dry out (NBLD) and number of trees with central leaf cabbage toppled (NLCT). Principal component analysis (PCA) has shown that NGBL, NFL and NLCT are more relevant for drought study in adult palms trees. PCA has also shown a high variability in genotypes. Thus, L9, L8, L3, L1, L2 and L10 were drought tolerant whereas L7 was drought sensitive. Between these two groups, L5, L6 and L4 display intermediate tolerance to drought. Planting tolerant genotypes is a necessity to avoid drought damage. Consequently, the future research must insight the biochemical and biomolecular bases of tolerance to drought between the ten genotypes.

“…In addition, stomatal sensitivity to VPD does not change in plants grown in high [CO 2 ] (Medlyn et al 2001). Lower photosynthetic capacity under drought conditions has been reported for other palm species (Oliveira et al 2002;Gomes et al 2008;Suresh et al 2010;Passos et al 2009;Silva et al 2017;Silvestre et al 2017). However, unlike most palms, macauba palm is naturally found in environments characterized by seasonal drought and high temperatures (Pires et al 2013) and therefore is able to adjust to, and recover from, water stress (Mota & Cano 2016).…”

“…The complete recovery of photosynthesis after drought in macauba palm indicates that photochemical and biochemical traits were not severely affected by water stress (Cornic 2000). Accumulation of abscisic acid in leaves suppresses photosynthetic recovery through lowering stomatal conductance after drought, as observed for the dwarf coconut (Gomes et al 2006) and the oil palm (Silva et al 2017). Despite the low leaflet water potential (Ψw = -2 MPa) for macauba palms in the first water stress cycle, the time for complete recovery of plants was short.…”

Increased atmospheric CO2 changes the photosynthetic responses of Acrocomia aculeata (Arecaceae) to drought

Water availability is the main factor that explains current patterns of palm abundance. However, the interaction between water stress and increasing atmospheric CO 2 concentrations caused by climatic change and its effects on palm physiology remain poorly known. Macauba palm is a widespread Neotropical species commonly found in ecosystems subjected to seasonal drought and has potential use in oil production. The present work investigated the influence of increased CO 2 concentrations on photosynthetic responses to drought in macauba palm plants. Exposure to increased CO 2 concentrations led to up-regulation of photosynthesis through higher stomatal conductance and improved light and water use efficiency. Macauba palm plants under water stress, irrespective of CO 2 concentration, were able to maintain constant levels of proline and chlorophyll, while preventing oxidative damage. Plants grown at higher CO 2 concentrations were more capable of recovering from drought due to higher Rubisco carboxylation rate (Vc max) and electron transport rate (J max), which prevented a reduction in total dry mass at the end of the stress period. Stomatal control of photosynthesis, coupled with the prevention of severe damage under stress, would allow efficient biomass production by the macauba palm under future scenarios of climate change.

Prolonged dry season, land fire, and haze disturbance occurred during El Niño 2015 in Indonesia. A study had been conducted to identify impacts of prolonged dry season and haze disturbance on ecophysiology of oil palm in Dawas Estate, South Sumatra. The study was conducted by collecting data of precipitation, visibility, oil palm fronds addition, rate of photosynthesis, Photosinthetically Active Radiation (PAR), and Elaeidobius kamerunicus activity on mature and immature palm before, during and after the incidence of drought and haze disturbance. T test was used for statistics analysis. The results showed that water deficit was recorded in July, August, September and October, it was 45, 92, 80, and 148 mm respectively. Dry month (precipitation was ≤ 60 mm) was 2 months, while dry spell occurred 3 times in June to July (33 days), August to September (42 days), and September to October (40 days). Haze disturbance occurred in August to November, it had decreased visibility to 80%. During drought stress and haze disturbance, there was decrease in fronds addition, photosynthesis rate and bunch productivity in following year. In addition, haze disturbance had decreased number of Elaeidobius kamerunicus visitting female flowers up to 95%.
