Other claims from this paper (18)
- Observation Calypso had greater blossom-end rot incidence than Counter at all salinities.
- Observation Spectra had greater blossom-end rot incidence than Counter at all salinities.
- Observation Early crop Calypso had its highest BER incidence at 10 mS cm-1.
- Observation Early crop Calypso had a greater proportion of internal BER than Spectra.
- Observation Late crop Spectra had greater BER incidence than Calypso.
- Observation Late crop Spectra had a higher proportion of external BER.
- Observation In the early crop, BER incidence at 10 mS cm-1 exceeded incidence at 15 mS cm-1.
- Observation The early crop difference mainly reflected exceptionally high internal BER incidence.
- Observation In the late crop, the salinity ranking of BER incidence reversed.
- Observation Counter had higher shoot dry weight than the two susceptible cultivars.
- Observation Calypso set more fruit in lower trusses.
- Observation Spectra set more fruit in upper trusses.
- Association High BER incidence was associated with more fruit set in susceptible cultivars.
- Intervention effect Salinity reduced calcium content in fruit.
- Observation Fruit calcium response did not differ by cultivar.
- Observation Distal placenta and locular tissues had the lowest fruit calcium content.
- Observation Earliest BER symptoms appeared in distal placenta and locular tissues.
- Association Cultivar by salinity interaction for calcium content in these tissues was not significant.
