Meanwhile, tetraploids had lower water loss, which slowed the onset of slow water deficit relative to diploids. This response allowed stronger photosynthesis, while antioxidant and osmoprotectant production allowed for further tolerance once desiccation began. Overall, our results concluded that Volkamer lemon tetraploid plants tolerate rapid and slow water deficit by maintaining their photosynthesis due to low conductance (stem or roots) which helps to avoid desiccation and stronger biochemical defense machinery than their correspon
