- Intervention effect Apple fruit iodine accumulation was dose dependent and stronger with KI than KIO 3.
- Intervention effect Pear fruit iodine accumulation was dose dependent and stronger with KI than KIO 3.
- Observation In fresh apples, 51% of biofortified iodine was in the peel.
- Observation In fresh pears, 75% of biofortified iodine was in the peel.
- Observation Up to 3% of remaining iodine reached the fruit core.
- Intervention effect Washing apples and pears reduced iodine content by 14%.
- Recommendation KIO 3 foliar fertilization at 1.5 kg I per hectare and meter canopy height was required to reach the target iodine level.
- Intervention effect Adding KNO 3 and Na 2 SeO 4 to iodine sprays did not affect fruit iodine content.
- Intervention effect KNO 3 increased fruit soluble solids by up to 1.0 °Brix versus control.
- Intervention effect Na 2 SeO 4 increased fruit selenium content.
- Intervention effect Iodine sprays did not affect fruit development or marketing quality.
- Intervention effect After three months of cold storage, iodine fertilization had no adverse effect on general fruit characteristics.
- Observation Apple iodine content declined 20% after three months of cold storage.
