- Intervention effect Water deficit significantly lowered predawn leaf water potential to -3.1 MPa.
- Intervention effect Water deficit reduced fruit fresh weight at 8 and 22 weeks AFB.
- Intervention effect Water deficit reduced fruit volume at 8 and 22 weeks AFB.
- Intervention effect Fruit transverse area under water deficit was 50% of the irrigated treatment at 6- weeks AFB.
- Intervention effect Fruit transverse area under water deficit was 33% of the irrigated treatment at 8- weeks AFB.
- Intervention effect Fruit transverse area under water deficit was 70% of the irrigated treatment at 22-week weeks AFB.
- Observation Mesocarp grew between 8 and 22 weeks AFB under both irrigation conditions.
- Intervention effect Mesocarp transverse area differed significantly between treatments at 22 weeks AFB.
- Intervention effect Endocarp area did not differ significantly between treatments at 22 weeks AFB.
- Intervention effect Mesocarp cell size differed significantly between treatments at 8 and 22 weeks AFB.
- Observation Most mesocarp cells had formed by 6 weeks AFB.
- Intervention effect Early water deficit shifted the timing of endocarp area growth most strongly.
- Observation By 8 weeks AFB, irrigated fruit had completed 90% of endocarp growth.
- Intervention effect By 8 weeks AFB, deficit irrigated fruit had completed only 40% of endocarp growth.
