- Intervention effect Removing the on-crop before endocarp hardening restored summer vegetative shoot growth.
- Intervention effect Early fruit removal restored inflorescence number the following spring.
- Intervention effect Fruit removal 75 days after endocarp hardening significantly reduced spring bud break.
- Intervention effect Delayed fruit removal significantly reduced floral intensity.
- Observation Most buds on nonbearing shoots of off-crop trees produced inflorescences.
- Observation Most buds on nonbearing shoots of on-crop trees remained inactive through spring bloom.
- Observation FT was expressed from June through March in buds on nonbearing shoots of off-crop trees.
- Observation FT expression was repressed in bearing shoot buds of on-crop trees from September.
- Observation FT expression was repressed in nonbearing shoot buds of on-crop trees from October.
- Observation By September, 51% of floral buds on bearing shoots of on-crop trees had abscised.
- Observation Two floral organ identity genes were expressed in March in buds on nonbearing off-crop shoots.
- Observation The floral organ identity genes were not expressed in buds of on-crop trees.
- Mechanism Authors suggest the on crop may inhibit floral meristem determination between September and October.
