Estimating Chill Units at Low Latitudes
Abstract Deciduous fruit species are generally of temperate-zone origin. When they are grown under subtropical conditions, climatic requirements may not be fulfilled and their growth and yield reduced (10, 12, 13, 15, 30, 31, 35, 55, 59, 62, 63). Cultural practices designed to improve plant growth and yields are necessary in areas with mild winters (23,
