Other claims from this paper (13)
- Method / resource Values from the TOMSIM simulation study and the greenhouse experiment were fitting.
- Intervention effect In simulation, synchronous leaf pruning reduced LAI from 2.9 to 1.9 relative to the control.
- Intervention effect In the greenhouse experiment, synchronous leaf pruning reduced LAI to 2.4 relative to the control.
- Intervention effect In simulation, synchronous leaf pruning decreased total plant dry weight per square meter by 12.2% relative to the control.
- Intervention effect In the greenhouse experiment, synchronous leaf pruning decreased total plant dry weight per square meter by 10.5% relative to the control.
- Intervention effect In simulation, synchronous leaf pruning improved the cumulative fraction of dry matter allocated to fruits to 61.5%, from 57.1%.
- Intervention effect In the greenhouse experiment, synchronous leaf pruning improved the cumulative fraction of dry matter allocated to fruits to 60.7%, from 56.6%.
- Intervention effect In simulation, synchronous leaf pruning decreased fruit dry weight per square meter only marginally, by 5.9%, relative to the control.
- Intervention effect In the greenhouse experiment, synchronous leaf pruning decreased fruit dry weight per square meter only marginally, by 4.2%, relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Leaf pruning with increased plant density raised the average LAI to 2.9 and 3.6.
- Intervention effect Leaf pruning with increased plant density increased total plant dry weight per square meter by 4.0% and 15.2%.
- Observation With leaf pruning and increased plant density, the cumulative fraction of dry matter allocated to fruits was 61.1% and 57.9%.
- Intervention effect Plant density had no significant influence on the cumulative fraction of dry matter allocated to fruits.
