Overview

Pot experiment shows reduced growth and enzymatic activity in Ziziphus mauritiana and Salvadora oleoides under water stress, indicating climate change impact.

Key Points

  • Water stress significantly reduced growth metrics, with plant height decreasing by up to 43% in Ziziphus mauritiana.
  • Increased enzymatic activities were recorded under drought conditions, notably for SOD and POD in both species.
  • Photosynthetic pigments exhibited antagonistic responses to drought, highlighting the stress impact on leaf functioning.
  • Ziziphus mauritiana outperformed Salvadora oleoides in all drought stress levels tested, suggesting higher adaptability.
