Relationship between seed retention time in bird's gut and fruit characteristics
ORNITHOLOGICAL SCIENCE, 2003 Seed retention time (SRT) of 16 fruit species in the guts of the Brown-eared Bulbul (Hypsipetes amaurotis), a major fruit consumer in central Japan, was studied to examine the relationship between SRT and fruit characteristics, i.e. fruit size, seed size, seed weight, and water content.

Influence of Aminoethoxyvinylglycine on Pecan Fruit Retention [PDF]
HortScience, 2009 Insufficient fruit retention limits profitability of certain pecan [Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch] cultivars. The present study examined efficacy of aminoethoxyvinylglycine (formulated as ReTain®; Valent BioSciences, Libertyville, IL), a natural ethylene inhibitor, for increasing crop-load through increased fruit retention in pecan trees grown

CALCIUM AND ETHEPHON EFFECTS ON PAPRIKA PEPPER FRUIT RETENTION AND FRUIT COLOR DEVELOPMENT [PDF]
HortScience, 1993 While ethephon [(2-chloroethyl) phosphonic acid] has increased yields of red fruits, its use as a pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) fruit ripening agent has been limited by premature fruit abscission and defoliation. We tested ethephon solutions of 0, 1500, 3000, 4500, and 6000 μl·liter-1 with or without 0.1M Ca(OH)2 as a one-time foliar application to field-

Water retention on the surface of apples and sweet cherry leaves and fruits
Journal of Plant Protection Research, 2022 Surface water retention of leaves and fruits of apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) and sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.), was evaluated under controlled environmental conditions in order to determine the retention potential at different growth stages. Dipping
