STUDIES ON COMPATIBILITY, FRUIT SET AND FRUIT QUALITY BY DIFFERENT POLLINATORS IN ANNA APPLE CULTIVAR

Cultivar and fruit size influence bruise susceptibility and some physical properties of apple fruit

ABSTRACT- For most fruit types, including apples, bruising is the most common type of postharvest mechanical injury. Bruise susceptibility was investigated in 3 commercial cultivars (‘JazzTM’, ‘Granny Smith’ and ‘Fuji’) and among a range of 4 different fruit sizes (commercial counts of 135, 120, 100, and 88) in each cultivar. Bruising was carried out by dropping a uniform round steel ball (110g...

The effect of supplementary hand pollination on fruit set and pollen tube growth in apple

effects of cross pollination on fruit set and some quality and quantity fruit traits of grape cultivar qezel ouzum

a number of grapevine cultivars have female flowers and for better fruit set, they need pollinizer. single planting of these cultivars leads to severe decrease in fruit set. this research was carried out to investigate the effect of cross pollination with four grape cultivars (askari, rish baba, bidane sefid and tabarze sefid) on fruit set, bunch weight, berry per cluster, average weight of 20 ...

Response of Wax Apple Cultivars by Applied GA3 and 2,4-D on Fruit Growth and Fruit Quality

The experiment was performed to evaluate the effect of GA3, 2,4-D on fruit growth and fruit quality of wax apple. The experiment consisted of Red A, Monulla, Atu, Red B cultivars. GA3 and 2,4-D were applied at the small bud and petal fall stage. Physiological, biochemical characters of fruit were recoded. The result showed application of GA3, 2,4-D greatly response in increasing fruit set for a...

Apple Fruit Pectic Substances.

1. The pectic substances of apple have been extracted and separated into a pure pectinic acid and a neutral arabinan-galactan complex by precipitation of the acidic component with ethanol and with cetylpyridinium chloride. 2. The composition of the fractions has been determined. The pectinic acid contained galacturonic acid, arabinose, galactose, rhamnose, xylose and several trace sugars. 3. Tr...
