Floral biology of `Taifi' pomegranate was studied on trees grown in extreme high temperature and drought conditions. Measurement included flowering date, duration and type, pollen viability, diameter, intitial and horticultural fruit set percentage, and fruit drop percentage and fluctuation. Heat and drought stresses were found to greatly influence some floral characteristics in addition to fruit set and productivity of `Taifi' pomegranate.

Plants of genetically dormant (D) and nondormant (ND) pure lines of Avena fatua were exposed to water stress during seed development. In comparison with normally well-watered controls, seeds produced by water-stressed plants exhibited shorter duration of primary dormancy. The magnitude of the effect varied among D families, but was consistently greater than in ND families.It is concluded that the dormancy phenotype of D lines is highly plastic and that the responses to high temperature and water stress are similar in a given pure line.
