“…In contrast, six characters did not show differences, including leaf shape (lanceolate), leaf serration depth (low), leaf pubescence (present), shoot spine (present), fruit stone flesh (present), and surface of fruit stone (coarse), and thus, they can be considered as stable traits. Sharif et al (2019) studied Z. mauritiana genotypes from Pakistan and reported that canopy density, color leaf lower surface, color of leaf upper surface, leaf shape, petiole length, fruit shape, fruit weight, and fruit stone shape showed high CVs.…”

“…The tree growth habit was variable and included weeping (49 genotypes), spreading (63), and opening (7). Sharif et al (2019) studied the growth habit of Z. mauritiana genotypes from Pakistan and observed that tree growth habit was spreading in the most of genotypes. Also, the majority of studied genotypes exhibited moderate values for other tree-related characters (Table 3).…”

Indian jujube (Ziziphus mauritiana Lamk., Rhamnaceae family) is rich in nutritional and medicinal properties. Tropical regions of South Asia, Australia, and Africa are its main distribution centers (Pasternak et al., 2009). In the arid and semi-arid regions, this plant is multipurpose and also can be used to prevent soil erosion (Gupta, 2018;Pareek, 2001). It has been confirmed that Indian jujube has high tolerance to salinity, drought, flooding, and withering (Grice, 1997). The medicinal and nutritional benefits of this plant have led to its attention. Vitamins are detected in its fruits. It is used as a sedative and anticancer. Also, it is suitable as wound healer and also against asthma (

“…The effect of drought stress is like a double-edged sword, because on the one hand it reduces plant dry matter while on the other hand, it increases the amount of secondary metabolites. Indeed, an increase in the amount of metabolites offsets the decline in the dry yield, so drought stress cannot be used as a suitable stimulus to enhance the secondary metabolites of tarragon, unless the tolerant cultivars are available 38 , 39 . Due to the tolerance of Hamadan, Varamin, and Kermanshah to drought stress, it seems that drought stress could be applied as a suitable stimulus to increase the amount of tarragon secondary metabolites or that of these accessions as suitable parents are used in the classic breeding programs and biotechnology approaches.…”

In this study, screening of Artemisia dracunculus accessions was investigated under water deficit based on physiological and phytochemical traits. The results clearly indicated that water deficit significantly reduced the relative water content, chlorophyll, and carotenoid contents and increased malondialdehyde, electrolyte leakage, and antioxidant activities. The responses of tarragon accessions to water deficit, however, were inconsistent. The HPLC analysis revealed the presence of chlorogenic, syringic, ferulic, vanillic, chicoric, and p-coumaric acids as major phenolic acids, while quercetin and herniarin were detected as the predominant flavonoid and coumarin compounds in the extracts. Our findings revealed that the water deficit not only increased the amounts of herniarin, luteolin, apigenin, caffeic acid, and syringic acid, but also introduced quercetin that was not present under normal conditions in Estahbanat. Nevertheless, these results were highly impacted by the accession type. The results indicated that Hamadan, Varamin and Estahbanat accessions could be introduced as tolerant accessions. Given the very different responses of tarragon accessions to water deficit and the diversity between these accessions, the findings of the present study could be an effective step in identifying and achieving homogeneous, drought-tolerant and high-yield potential accessions, and may help tarragon breeding programs as well as development of cultivation.

“…There are different quantitative and qualitative characteristics that can be studied through physical observations like plant height. Plant height actually determine the growth and development of a tree according to its existing climate (Kareem et al, 2018;Sharief et al, 2019;Nafees et al, 2020). A variation in plant height among the olive varieties actually results due to the effect of environmental conditions and genetic makeup of the variety which perform differently in specific climatic conditions (Hammami et al, 2011).…”

O live is getting popularity among all spheres of society due to its medicinal and dietary value. Previously, Olive was considered as a crop of the Mediterranean countries. The Mediterranean region is the main olive producing area including Syria, Turkey and Israel (Trujillo et al., 2014). Presently many other regions of the world are adapting olive cultivation in their cropping system due to its economic value, comparatively easy production technology and wider adaptability. During last couple of decades, consumption and cultivation of olive also started in many countries other than Mediterranean basin like Australia, India, China, Pakistan and the American southern part (Awan et al., 2011). Olive plant have an adaptive mechanism to grow well and produce fruit under rain fed conditions (
