Cover Story: The proximity of olive trees in super high density orchards (SHD) leads to high leaf area index (LAI) and greater interception of photosynthetically active radiation early in hedgerow formation. However, horizontal light reflection by leaves of neighboring olive trees may alter the light environment by reducing R/FR and B/G and triggering photomorphological plant responses. The results show that increasing LAI does modify light quality environment even before the occurrence of direct shading between trees. Furthermore, reductions in horizontal R/FR led to cultivar-specific morphological responses. Cultivar differences in response to light quality may be relevant for understanding olive cultivar adaptation to SHD.View this paper
