Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Olive (Olea europaea L.) is a crop well adapted to the environmental conditions prevailing in the Mediterranean Basin. In the last two decades, the increasing international demand for olive oil and table olives has led to expansion of olive cultivation in countries outside the Mediterranean and, in some cases, at latitudes other than recognized as optimal for the development of the crop. So, it is of interest to carry out studies aimed at understanding the behavior of olive in new cultivation scenarios. Such studies can be useful for planning new olive tree plantations, and selecting new genotypes also with a view to face the challenges of climate change. This Special Issue aims to better know genetic and environmental factors influencing biochemical-physiological, productive, compositional and quality aspects of olive worldwide.
