Abstract

Climate change is affecting the peach growing areas of Pakistan, especially semi-arid areas of Pothwar
pleatue which has great potential for peach production. Drought is one of the major effects of climate change.
Therefore, the present study was conducted to evaluate the response of peach rootstocks (GF- 677, Peshawar Local
and Swat Local) under in-vitro drought stress condition, provided by polyethylene glycol (PEG) at various osmotic
potential levels. L
