Molecular regulation of seed and fruit set [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Plant Science, 2012
Seed and fruit set are established during and soon after fertilization and determine seed and fruit number, their final size and, hence, yield potential. These processes are highly sensitive to biotic and abiotic stresses, which often lead to seed and fruit abortion.

Fruit Setting Behaviour of Passion Fruit

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Plant Sciences, 2013
Passion fruit has great prospective to fascinate fruit consumer for its taste and delicious fruit juice and improvement of the economic condition of the fruit grower in the developing countries. The self-incompatibility in the passion fruits is an imperative reason to be considered regarding fruit production.

Auxin and ethylene regulation of fruit set [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Science, 2020
With the forecasted fast increase in world population and global climate change, providing sufficient amounts of quality food becomes a major challenge for human society. Seed and fruit crop yield is determined by developmental processes including flower initiation, pollen fertility and fruit set.

Seedless Fruit Production by Hormonal Regulation of Fruit Set [PDF]

open access: yesNutrients, 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

open access: yesEcology 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 ...

IMPROVING FRUIT SET, YIELD AND FRUIT QUALITY OF KHADRAWI DATE PALM CULTIVAR [PDF]

open access: yesArab Universities Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2018
This experiment was carried out during 2015 and 2016 experimental seasons to investigate the effect of spraying with moringa extract at 3%, garlic extract at 3% or ascorbic acid at 300 ppm on fruit set, yield and fruit quality of Khadrawi date palm ...

Stochastic dynamic simulation of fruit abortion: a case study of sweet pepper [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Abortion of reproductive organs diminishes yields in many crops. In indeterminate greenhouse crops, alternating periods of fruit abortion and fruit set exist, resulting in fluctuations in fruit yield. Factors affecting the level of abortion are e.g., the

The effect of polyamines and SICS on the compatibility, fertility and yield indices of apple cv. Golden Delicious

open access: yesAdvances in Horticultural Science, 2018
The most critical problems of temperate fruit trees are poor fruit set and low yield. To solve the problem, some major chemical compounds such as polyamines and SICS (self-incompatibility control substance, Mn+B) can be used. Popular polyamines including

Modelling the effects of osmotic stress on tomato fruit development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Whereas most high-tech tomato greenhouses focus primarily on high production yields, consumers prefer a higher quality product. Dry matter content is one of the key factors determining fruit quality, and is known to be substantially influenced by ...
