- Intervention effect TP at the young fruitlet stage significantly increased lychee yield.
- Intervention effect TPA at the young fruitlet stage significantly increased lychee yield.
- Intervention effect TP followed by TPA increased yield more than either alone.
- Intervention effect TPA increased lychee fruit size relative to controls and TP.
- Intervention effect TPA increased lychee fruit weight relative to controls and TP.
- Recommendation The authors propose TPA sprays to meet demand for large lychee fruit.
