Kiwifruit fruit size distributions

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, 1989
Abstract The distribution of fruit weight at harvest from 0.5 ha blocks of kiwifruit in the Kerikeri district is shown to closely approximate a Normal distribution with a constant standard deviation of 20.5 g. The standard deviation changed less than 2 g between seasons despite wide variations in the mean fruit weight with crop loading and vine age ...

Fruit Selectivity in Anthropoid Primates: Size Matters

International Journal of Primatology, 2020
Certain features of both extant and fossil anthropoid primates have been interpreted as adaptations to ripe fruit foraging and feeding particularly spatulate incisors and trichromatic color vision. Here, we approach the question of anthropoid fruit foraging adaptations in light of the sensory and mechanical properties of anthropoid-consumed fruits in ...

Size factors in apple fruit

Scientia Horticulturae, 1980
Abstract Eight ‘Golden Delicious’ apple trees on an experimental plot were systematically thinned to give different numbers of fruit per spur, per branch, and per tree. At harvest, fruits were weighed individually and their positions on spurs and branches noted. Trunk and branch girths were measured.

Size factors in strawberry fruit

Scientia Horticulturae, 1978
Abstract Analysis of data relating to berries of 9 cultivars grown under different conditions indicates that the weight of ripe berries can be accounted for by the general equation Berry fresh weight (g) = ( Total no. of achenes − C)F ( No.

Fruit quality and major metabolites in cold-stored 'Wonhwang' Asian pears are differentially affected by fruit size.

The Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2020
BACKGROUND The size of 'Wonhwang' Asian pear fruit may affect fruit quality and physiological disorders differentially during distribution. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of fruit size on fruit physiological attributes and metabolic ...

RNA-Seq analysis unveils gene regulation of fruit size cooperatively determined by velocity and duration of fruit swelling in peach.

Physiologia Plantarum : An International Journal for Plant Biology, 2018
Fruit swelling determines fruit size and usually occurs in two distinct time periods in peach. However, little is known about the gene regulation of fruit swelling.

Relation Between Fruit Size and Abscission of Young Orange Fruits

Botanical Gazette, 1927
1. The percentage loss of moisture from young oranges and grapefruit decreases rapidly as the fruits increase in size. This change doubtless is due largely to the decrease in proportionate surface area as the fruit increases in diameter. 2. Observations on tagged fruits confirm the common knowledge that young citrus fruits readily undergo abscission up

Peach fruit growth in relation to the leaf-to-fruit ratio, early fruit size and fruit position

The Journal of Horticultural Science and Biotechnology, 2005
SummaryTo study the influences of assimilate availability, early fruit size and fruit position on fruit growth, experiments were conducted on an early-maturing peach (Prunus persica) cv.‘Alexandra’ in 1992 and a late-maturing peach cv.‘Suncrest’ in 1993. Leaf-to-fruit ratio (LFR) was used to manipulate assimilate availability.
