Other claims from this paper (16)
- Intervention effect AVG and NAA together improved Golden Delicious fruit-drop control over either alone.
- Intervention effect Full-rate ReTain and reduced-rate ReTain plus NAA gave equivalent fruit-drop control.
- Intervention effect ReTain delayed Golden Delicious fruit softening and starch depletion.
- Intervention effect NAA sometimes promoted earlier fruit maturity.
- Intervention effect NAA with ReTain produced maturity similar to ReTain alone.
- Association Fruit with the highest firmness and starch were in the best condition after cold storage.
- Intervention effect Harvest-time EthylBloc or NAA did not inhibit Golden Delicious fruit drop.
- Intervention effect Ethephon caused faster and greater fruit drop than control.
- Intervention effect EthylBloc pretreatment did not prevent rapid drop after ethephon.
- Intervention effect EthylBloc gas maintained Golden Delicious firmness by 19.1 N.
- Intervention effect EthylBloc spray maintained Golden Delicious firmness by 10.2 N.
- Intervention effect EthylBloc gas maintained starch, but spray did not.
- Intervention effect Harvest-time EthylBloc spray did not inhibit Law Rome fruit drop.
- Intervention effect EthylBloc sprays maintained Law Rome fruit firmness.
- Intervention effect EthylBloc gas did not maintain Law Rome starch.
- Intervention effect Longer shading increased fruit abscission relative to shorter shading and control.
