Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect GA3 delayed flower bud development after endodormancy.
- Intervention effect GA3 significantly delayed 50% bloom by about one day.
- Intervention effect Ethephon at 150 mg per liter delayed bloom by 4.7 days.
- Association Higher concentration of each chemical caused greater bloom delay.
- Observation The two chemicals showed no interaction for bloom date.
- Intervention effect The combined GA3 and ethephon treatment caused the greatest bloom delay of 6.5 days.
- Intervention effect The two highest ethephon rates produced scaffold gummosis in fall and spring.
- Observation Little gummosis was evident during summer and following fall.
- Observation By September 1991 gummosis evidence was insignificant.
- Observation No tree mortality occurred.
