The aim of the Special Issue “Precision Management Fruit Trees” was to collect new insights support adoption advanced, efficient, and sustainable management techniques in fruit production sector [...]

Pseudomonas syringae pv. persicae is a pathogen that causes bacterial decline of stone fruit. Here, we report the draft genome sequence for P. syringae pv. persicae, which was isolated from Prunus persica.

In this work, 19 newly introduced and some traditional apricot cultivars were evaluated by 20 phenological agronomical traits fruit quality attributes. The results showed a wide variation in data, tree vigour (TCSA), productivity [yield per tree, cumulative yield (CY) efficiency (YE)], attributes such as stone weight, flesh/stone ratio, dimensions, size, shape index, soluble solids content (SSC...

food quality, marketability, soluble solids, size and color of nectarine fruit is affected by the intensity and amount of direct sunlight. usually the outer areas of fruit trees get enough light and take the appropriate color. however, in the middle and lower part of trees, due to low light intensity, fruits have no good color and taste and their marketability were not desirable. to improve the...

Understanding the spectral features of Washington navel trees is important to remotely measure and monitor the canopy properties and biochemical changes in plantations. Satellite and ground based passive remote sensing techniques have been widely used in many plant species. However, the use of these techniques in orange trees is limited. In this study, relationships between total chlorophyll (C...

Animals and fruiting plants are involved in a complex set of interactions, with animals relying on fruiting trees as food resources, and fruiting trees relying on animals for seed dispersal. This interdependence shapes fruit signals such as colour and odour, to increase fruit detectability, and animal sensory systems, such as colour vision and olfaction to facilitate food identification and sel...

Wilcox, W. F. 1989. Influence of environment and inoculum density on the incidence of brown rot blossom blight of sour cherry. Phytopathology 79:530-534. When potted Montmorency sour cherry trees were inoculated in full Montmorency trees were inoculated with either 50, 500, or 5,000 bloom with 5,000 conidia/ml of Monilinia fructicola, placed into mist conidia/ ml of M. fructicola, placed into m...

this study was conducted with the main purpose of investigating genetic variation among 13 selected sweetcherry (prunus avium cv. siah mashhad) genotypes, i.e., the most important iranian sweet cherry cultivars based on their pomological, morphological, and phonological characteristics. the experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications at khorasan-e-razav...
