Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Total annual growth increment was positively correlated with total leaf amount per tree.
- Association New leaf production per unit leaf biomass decreased as fruit load rose.
- Association Current shoot production per unit leaf biomass decreased as fruit load rose.
- Association Average fruit weight decreased with higher fruit load.
- Association Fruit productivity per unit leaf biomass increased with higher fruit load.
- Observation Trees bearing one fruit per 40–60 leaves produced 1.0–1.1 kg fresh fruit per square metre of leaf area.
- Association Annual growth increment per kg of leaves rose to about 3.7 kg/kg leaf-year in the most heavily loaded trees.
- Observation The fruit-load relationships appeared similar to published density relationships, but the density formulation did not apply.
