Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Paclobutrazol reduced length of vegetative growth in all trials.
- Intervention effect Eight mL a.i. per tree, applied as a single yearly collar drench, significantly (P<0.05) reduced percentage flush.
- Intervention effect Collar treatments were significantly (P<0.05) more effective than drip line treatment in reducing length of vegetative growth.
- Intervention effect Two years' collar drench was generally more effective than a band treatment followed by a collar drench.
- Intervention effect Paclobutrazol increased flowering in a year of inadequate winter stress.
- Intervention effect Paclobutrazol increased cropping in a year of inadequate winter stress.
- Intervention effect a trend towards increased yield was noted under more normal conditions.
- Observation Paclobutrazol yield increases came from fruit number rather than size.
- Intervention effect Fruit colour was unaffected.
- Intervention effect Soil-applied treatments were more effective on flowering and cropping than foliar treatment
- Intervention effect collar drenches more effective than drip line treatment.
- Intervention effect A trend for decreasing yields was found when paclobutrazol was applied as a collar drench for 2 consecutive years at the same rate, compared with an ineffective drip line followed by a single collar treatment.
- Intervention effect Rates of paclobutrazol >4 mL a.i./tree caused unacceptable compaction of flower panicles.
- Recommendation Authors judged 4 mL a.i./tree the best application rate under the studied soil, climate, tree size and age.
