- Intervention effect Water deficit decreased predawn leaf water potential to -3.1 MPa.
- Intervention effect Water deficit reduced fruit fresh weight at 8 and 22 weeks.
- Intervention effect Water deficit reduced volume at 8 and 22 weeks.
- Intervention effect Water deficit fruit transverse area was 50% of irrigated fruit at 6- week sampling.
- Intervention effect Water deficit fruit transverse area was 33% of irrigated fruit at 8- week sampling.
- Intervention effect Water deficit fruit transverse area was 70% of irrigated fruit at 22-week week sampling.
- Observation Mesocarp grew between 8 and 22 weeks in both irrigation treatments.
- Intervention effect Mesocarp transverse area differed significantly between treatments at 22 weeks.
- Intervention effect Endocarp area did not differ significantly between treatments at 22 weeks.
- Intervention effect Mesocarp cell size differed significantly between treatments at 8 and 22 weeks.
- Observation Most mesocarp cells were produced by 6 weeks after full bloom.
- Intervention effect Early water deficit produced the greatest timing shift in endocarp area growth.
- Observation Irrigated fruit completed 90% of endocarp growth by 8 weeks.
- Intervention effect Deficit-irrigated fruit completed only 40% of endocarp growth by 8 weeks.
