Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Soil and row-side drenches inhibited shoot growth by 69 days, earlier than bark painting.
- Intervention effect Soil and row-side drenches reduced fruit set.
- Intervention effect Bark painting did not reduce fruit set.
- Intervention effect Paclobutrazol did not influence yield in the application year.
- Intervention effect Two-year cumulative yield ranked bark painting highest, then control, row-side drench, and soil drench.
- Intervention effect Treatments did not adversely affect fruit quality.
- Intervention effect Treated trees tended to produce significantly larger fruit than untreated controls.
- Intervention effect Broad bean bioassay growth in row-side drench soil was 56.1% of control.
- Intervention effect Broad bean bioassay growth in soil-drenched soil was 23.6% of control.
- Recommendation Authors recommend considering bark application in high-density cherry plantings.
