- Intervention effect Girdled shoot leaves had higher carbon fixation than controls.
- Intervention effect Shoot girdling reduced leaf starch accumulation.
- Intervention effect Leaf stomatal resistance was comparable between girdled and control shoots.
- Observation Thirty leaves could not support a single normal-size mango fruit.
- Mechanism Fruit development depends substantially on reserves as well as current assimilates.
- Mechanism Use of vegetative reserves in on years may contribute to biennial and erratic bearing.
