Physiological Study of Ethephon‑ and ACC‑Induced Fruitlet and Leaf Abscission in Peach Trees Under Diferent Conditions of Temperature
(Springer, 2022-12-16)
The efect of temperature on the ability of 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (ethephon, ETH) and the 1-aminocyclopropane carboxylic acid (ACC) to induce ethylene production in fruitlets and abscission of ...
Differential response to calcium-labelled (44Ca) uptake and allocation in two peach rootstocks in relation to transpiration under in vitro conditions
(Elsevier, 2023-11-28)
Calcium-labelled (44Ca) uptake and transport under in vitro GreenTray® temporary immersion bioreactor conditions have been studied related to aeration conditions. For this aim, Rootpac®-20 (RP-20) and ...
Use of root pruning, paclobutrazol, and prohexadione-Ca combination strategies to control growth and improve productivity on pear trees
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, 2019-07)
Growth control in pear orchards is essential, not just to reduce competition between vegetative and reproductive sinks, but also to improve return bloom, yield and fruit quality. The goal to optimize ...
Responses of Ethylene Emission, Abscission, and Fruit Quality to the Application of ACC as a Chemical Thinner in ‘Flatbeauti’ Peach
(Springer, 2024-06-15)
Peach (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) trees are prone to heavy cropping, but crop load management options are limited. 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) has been suggested to reduce crop load and ...
Frost Damage Mitigation in Flowers and Fruitlets of Peach and Almond from the Application of a Multi-Attribute Approach Biostimulant
(MDPI, 2024-06-08)
To prevent frost damage in fruit trees, growers employ passive and active methods, and one of these second methods is the use of biostimulant compounds against abiotic stress. In this study, two trials ...
Is calcium deficiency the real cause of bitter pit? A review
(Frontiers Media, 2024-06-24)
Bitter pit is a disorder affecting the appearance of apples. Susceptibility is genetically controlled by both the cultivar and rootstock, with both environmental and horticultural factors affecting its ...
