| Abstract/Contents: | "Fragaria chiloensis (Linnaeus) is a viable, low maintenance alternative to groundcovers currently available in the ornamental landscape industry. There is considerable genetic viability within this species for leaf morphology, growth and flowering habits as well as drought tolerance. Clones collected from 11 coastal sites in CA and OR were compared for drought tolerance after two imposed water stress\recovery cycles. Predawn water potential, gas exchange, chlorophyll (chl) content, fourth derivative spectroscopy, carbon isotope discrimination, and total biomass production were evaluated and significant clonal differences were observed. Predawn water potentials after the first stress cycle ranged from -35.0 MPa to -6.5 MPa. Clones 105, DNT and G19 had highest predawn water potentials and gas exchange rates after both stress cycles. In the control group, 104 and DNT had higher levels of chi a, chi b, total chi and chi a\b. After the first stress cycle, clones DNT and 105 had the highest a\b ratio, however, after the second stress event there were no differences in any chi parameters. Varying adaptive abilities observed may suggest differential use in the landscape." |
