- Intervention effect Spraying at 30 days after full bloom improved photosynthetic rate at 9:00 a.m. in the fruit expanding period, mainly by reducing stomatal limitation.
- Intervention effect Spraying at 90 days after full bloom improved photosynthetic rate at 16:00 p.m. in the fruit expanding period, mainly by reducing nonstomatal limitation.
- Intervention effect Leaf calcium concentration increased by 127.16% with 30 DAFB spraying relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Leaf calcium concentration increased by 97.53% with 90 DAFB spraying relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Leaf calcium concentration increased by 33.33% with 240 DAFB spraying relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Leaf magnesium concentration increased by more than 32.26% under the calcium nitrate treatments.
- Intervention effect Spraying at 30 DAFB reduced leaf potassium concentration by 22.14% relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Spraying at 30 DAFB decreased the second fruit drop rate by 30.55%.
- Intervention effect Spraying at 30 DAFB increased weight per fruit by 25.04%.
- Intervention effect Spraying at 30 DAFB significantly increased citrus yield.
- Mechanism Spraying at 30 DAFB affected titratable acid metabolism and improved citrus fruit maturity.
