In guava plants, production pruning can be performed twice a year, and the return of growth is dependent on physiological responses that are altered by different cultivation environments adopted management. From this perspective, study aimed to characterize photosynthetic dynamics plants influenced fruit thinning intensities during two growing seasons in region Currais, Piauí, Brazil. The were ...

The relationship of 6-benzylaminopurine (BA)-induced fruitlet abscission to seed number and endogenous cytokinin levels in the fruit and leaves was examined in `McIntosh' apples (Malus domestica Borkh.). BA applied at the 10 mm stage of fruit development effectively thinned apple fruit and increased fruit size. The seed number of abscising fruit increased as BA concentrations increased. In pers...
