- The effect of paclobutrazol sprays with or without the addition of surfactants on the shoot growth, yield and fruit quality of the apple cultivars Cox and Suntan (1986)
no changeA single paclobutrazol spray had no significant effect on total Suntan yield.
The use of growth regulators to increase precocity in apple trees (1986)decreasePaclobutrazol including a spray at three weeks after petal fall reduced Cox fruit number and yield per tree.

A paper is on the positive side when any of its claims here is positive. Claims are grouped by organism, treatment and what was measured or targeted. Claims that compare genotypes are left out; a claim about lacking a nutrient counts the other way round in that nutrient’s question. “Results differ” marks a question where two model reviewers, reading both claims, accepted at least one pair of papers whose results differ.
