Seedless Fruit Production by Hormonal Regulation of Fruit Set [PDF]
Nutrients, 2009 Seed and fruit development are intimately related processes controlled by internal signals and environmental cues. The absence of seeds is usually appreciated by consumers and producers because it increases fruit quality and fruit shelf-life. One method to produce seedless fruit is to develop plants able to produce fruits independently from pollination

Fitness of natural willow hybrids in a pioneer mosaic hybrid zone
Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Hybrid fitness is an important parameter to predict the evolutionary consequences of a hybridization event and to characterize hybrid zones. We studied fitness parameters of F1 and later‐generation hybrids between the lowland species Salix purpurea and ...

Rootstock influence on apple canopy architecture under high radiation and temperature [PDF]
Agroznanje, 2012 Beside its typical and optimal area of cultivation in the central and northeast Albania, in the last decade, apple cultivation has been spread into the Western Plain, to benefit from the advantages of earliness and vicinity to the main markets. The scope

Influence of M9 rootstock on reproductive behaviour of apple cultivars under dry, semi-arid growing conditions [PDF]
Agroznanje, 2013 In the last decade, apple has been intensively cultivated in the western coast of Albania. The scope of this research was to study the influence of M9 rootstock on the reproductive behaviour of apple cultivars 'M.

Variation in Lowbush Blueberry Fruit Set and Fruit Characteristics [PDF]
HortScience, 1996 Twenty stems with four fruit buds were tagged in each of ten lowbush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium Ait.) clones in a commercial field to assess fruit set and fruit size and weight characteristics. The terminal bud produced the fewest blossoms and fruit but fruit set was equal among all buds (65%–70%).

FRUITING REDUCES FOLLOWING YEAR FRUIT SET IN CRANBERRY UPRIGHTS [PDF]
HortScience, 1992 Biennial bearing of uprights has been documented for cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.). Percent return bloom (%RB) may vary from 14% to 74% depending on cultivar and growing region. Floral initiation for the following season in cranberry takes place during the same time period as flowering and fruit set for the current season.
