We have studied the effect of fruit growth pattern on apple (cv ‘Braeburn’) textural quality evaluated by near infra-red spectroscopy at harvest and by sensorial analysis with a trained panel both at harvest and after two months of cold storage. Fruit growth pattern was defined considering two main growth phases and using absolute and relative growth rate as growth parameters. Fruit with similar size...
Key messageNitrate and potassium uptake are strongly correlated in deciduous trees from bud break to leaf fall. A conceptual model for potassium cycling is proposed to explain this result. Abstract We have studied the correlation between nitrate and potassium uptake in spring and autumn in two deciduous tree species: walnut and sycamore maple. Two-year-old trees were transplanted in early...
A multitude of data on eco-physiological processes in apple (Malus × domestica) is available, concerning various aspects of fruit growth and development, fruit quality, or leaf photosynthesis. However, despite the wealth of data and studies many processes leading to (inter-annual and intra-arboreal) heterogeneity in quantity of fruit production as well as fruit quality are still only poorly understood...
