Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Magnesium chlorate was the only tested inorganic defoliant giving satisfactory apple rootstock defoliation.
- Intervention effect Magnesium chlorate applied at the end of September did not decrease apple rootstock winter hardiness.
- Intervention effect Ethrel satisfactorily defoliated apple rootstocks.
- Intervention effect CKB 1131 satisfactorily defoliated apple rootstocks.
- Intervention effect Ethrel at an optimal defoliation concentration decreased apple rootstock winter hardiness.
- Intervention effect CKB 1131 at an optimal defoliation concentration decreased apple rootstock winter hardiness.
- Intervention effect Low concentration ethephon with EMD caused partial apple rootstock defoliation.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid did not improve ethephon defoliation efficacy on apple rootstocks.
- Intervention effect N252 at 0.15% effectively defoliated apple rootstocks.
- Intervention effect N252 at 0.15% did not reduce apple rootstock frost hardiness in this experiment.
- Association The response of Jonathan apple scions to defoliants varied with rootstock.
