‘Payizeh Znouz’ apple trees have a high capacity for fruit bearing, leading to a small fruit size. Thinning of flowers and fruits can considerably increase the quality of the fruits in prunus trees by improving the size, color, and other features related to the quality of the fruit. An experiment was conducted to study the effects of ammonium thiosulphate (0.25%, 1% and 1.75%) at different stag...
