Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Marglobe stopped responding to CPA and ceased fruiting after high temperatures began.
- Observation Under high light, Marglobe vegetative and reproductive activity stopped and treatments failed.
- Intervention effect In shade, Marglobe set fruit after CPA sprays despite temperatures above 110⚬ F.
- Observation S-1112B produced parthenocarpic fruit under reduced light without CPA.
- Observation Except the first fruit spur, Marglobe failed to respond to CPA for fruit set outdoors.
- Observation Marglobe showed style exsertion throughout the high-temperature period.
- Observation Other selections varied erratically in style exsertion.
- Observation Flower abscission varied considerably.
- Observation Unsprayed non-racemose inflorescences usually abscised after opening unless fruit developed.
- Observation Inorganic elements, carbohydrates and nitrogen did not appear limiting in nonfruiting V617 Pearson or fruiting S-1119.
