Abstract

Misfortunes caused by high temperatures compel us to more readily comprehend the physiological, hormonal, and sub-atomic systems of reactions, particularly in humid and subhumid yields such as citrus organic products that are accustomed to specific conditions. Heat stress is accustomed to drought and many other environmental factors affecting Citriculture. We observe the role of Rubisco, antioxidant enzymes, HSPs, physiological changes in plasma membranes, and the role of ABA and SA under heat stress in citrus. Not-with-standing essential exploration, developing and utilizing new and well-developed citrus rootstocks is an essential element for the regulation, according to ecological circumstances. Rootstocks are essential in controlling how plants react to changing environmental factors, such as heat stress. They transfer beneficial features and increase stress tolerance, which helps citrus plants be more resilient overall. The duration of growth, yield, fruit quality, and tolerance to biotic and abiotic challenges are only a few of the characteristics of citrus horticulture that can be significantly improved using the right rootstocks. Enhancing citrus fruits' resistance to unfavorable environmental circumstances is urgently needed due to climate change. We can learn more about how different rootstocks affect the scion's capacity to withstand abiotic pressures by examining the metabolic responses caused by those rootstocks. Because of its increased antioxidant capacity, improved stomatal control, and storage of protective proteins, Carrizo citrange, for instance, demonstrates superior resilience to heat stress when compared to Cleopatra mandarin. The combined impacts of heat and drought on citrus vegetation differ from the effects of each stress alone. Specific metabolic changes are occur, which agree with findings from other plant research looking at the combined impacts of stress on physiology, transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome. When using rootstocks like Sunki Maravilha mandarin under drought stress, important metabolites such as galactinol, raffinose, and SA can be enhanced in scions through grafting. On the other hand, the Cleopatra rootstock alters the metabolism of the scion, resulting in lower quantities of the amino acids galactinol, raffinose, proline, phenylalanine, and tryptophan, which could lead to undesired characteristics. These results highlight the value of continued research to solve the problems brought on by climate change and provide light on the role of rootstocks in citriculture.
