Foliar Supplementation of Clove Fruit Extract and Salicylic Acid Maintains the Performance and Antioxidant Defense System of <i>Solanum tuberosum</i> L. under Deficient Irrigation Regimes
A field trial was conducted twice (in 2020 and 2021) to evaluate the effect of clove fruit extract (CFE) and/or salicylic acid (SA), which were used as a foliar nourishment, on growth and yield traits, as well as physiological and biochemical indices utilizing potato (<i>Solanum tuberosum</...

A field trial was conducted twice (in 2020 and 2021) to evaluate the effect of clove fruit extract (CFE) and/or salicylic acid (SA), which were used as a foliar nourishment, on growth and yield traits, as well as physiological and biochemical indices utilizing potato (<i>Solanum tuberosum</i> L.) plants irrigated with deficient regimes in an arid environment. Three drip irrigation regimes [e.g., well watering (7400 m<sup>3</sup> ha<sup>−1</sup>), moderate drought (6200 m<sup>3</sup> ha<sup>−1</sup>), and severe drought (5000 m<sup>3</sup> ha<sup>−1</sup>)] were designed for this study.
