Hydrogen Cyanamide Accelerates Vegetative Budbreak and Shortens Fruit Development Period of Blueberry

Blueberry and cranberry fruit composition during development1

Compositional changes that occur during fruit development affect both the organoleptic and nutritional quality of small fruit. Compositional changes in blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L) and cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton) fruit were determined at 3 maturities (white, turning and fully colored) during 2 seasons by analyzing sugar, acid, total phenolic, and total anthocyanin composition,...

Pruning severity affects yield, fruit load and fruit and leaf traits of ‘Brigitta’ blueberry

Pruning is crucial to balance productivity and fruit quality in blueberry orchards. Slight, conventional and severe pruning treatments were applied on 4and 5-year old bluberry plants cultivar ‘Brigitta’ to evaluate their effect on yield, leaf area, gas exchange and fruit load as driver of fruit quality traits. Yield and berries per plant decreased with increasing pruning severity, whereas canop...

Blueberry fruit response to postharvest application of ultraviolet radiation

Blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum, cvs. Collins, Bluecrop) were exposed to ultraviolet light-C (UV-C) radiation treatments from 0 to 4 kJ/m2 rior to 7 days storage at 5 ◦C plus 2 days at 20 ◦C, 90% RH. Weight loss and firmness were not affected by light treatment. Decay incidence from ipe rot (Colletotrichum acutatum, syn. C. gloeosporioides) on fruit was decreased by 10% with 1–4 kJ/m2 UV-C li...
