Abstract
Experiments were conducted in 1995 and 1996 to investigate the effect of Accel and Carbaryl on apple fruit on three apple cultivars (Empire, Jon-A-Red, and Braeburn) at the Mississippi State Univ. Aricultural Experiment Station, Pontotoc. The treatments consisted of Accel 25 ppm, Accel 50 ppm, Accel 75 ppm, Carbaryl 0.05%, Carbaryl 0.2%, and an unsprayed control. Trials conducted over 2 years showed that Accel and Carbaryl consistently reduced the fruit set of three apple cultivars. There were interactions between the bioregulators and cultivars only in 1996. In all the bioregulators, treatments reduced fruit set, while in 1996, Carbaryl and Accel at all concentrations except Accel 25 ppm reduced the fruit set of `Empire', `Jon-A-Red', and `Braeburn'. Carbary 0.2% and Accel 75 ppm were the most-effective concentrations in `Empire', `Jon-A-Red', and `Braeburn', respectively, in 1996. The treatments generally increased yield and sugar content, while pH was either not affected, increased or decreased, depending on the apple cultivar.
