Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Cluster thinning to one cluster per shoot decreased grapevine yield
- Intervention effect Cluster thinning to one cluster per shoot increased juice soluble solids concentrations in grapevines
- Intervention effect Clusters on longer canes (node length 12 nodes or more) had reduced cluster and berry weight
- Intervention effect Cane length had no effect on juice components of grapevines
- Association No interaction was found between cluster thinning time and cane node length in grapevines
- Intervention effect Later cluster thinning of Vidal blanc grapevines increased cluster weight and juice pH more
- Intervention effect Cluster thinning had no effect on pruning weight, shoot distribution or origin, or leaf mineral levels
- Intervention effect Juice total soluble solids of Vidal blanc increased equally at all cluster thinning times
- Intervention effect Juice total soluble solids of Chardonnay increased equally at all cluster thinning times
