Journal ArticleDOI
Regulated deficit irrigation improved fruit quality and water use efficiency of pear-jujube trees
Ningbo Cui,Taisheng Du,Shaozhong Kang,Fusheng Li,Fusheng Li,Jianhua Zhang,Mixia Wang,Zhijun Li +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that RDI should be adopted as a beneficial agricultural practice in the production of pear-jujube fruit.
Journal ArticleDOI
De novo assembly and characterization of fruit transcriptome in Litchi chinensis Sonn and analysis of differentially regulated genes in fruit in response to shading
TL;DR: The assembled transcriptome of litchi fruit provides a global description of expressed genes in litchesi fruit development, and could serve as an ideal repository for future functional characterization of specific genes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of synthetic auxins on fruit development of 'Bing' cherry (Prunus avium L.)
TL;DR: Applying synthetic auxins to the main cherry cultivar grown in the warm climate of Israel caused appreciable and significant increases in fruit size and total yield, except when the crop load was heavy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbohydrate Stress Affecting Fruitlet Abscission and Expression of Genes Related to Auxin Signal Transduction Pathway in Litchi
TL;DR: The results of this study provide new insight into the process of fruitlet abscission induced by carbohydrate stress and broaden the understanding of the auxin signal transduction pathway in this process at the molecular level.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Role of Flies as Pollinators of Horticultural Crops: An Australian Case Study with Worldwide Relevance.
TL;DR: Considering existing pollination evidence, along with the distribution, morphology, behaviour and life history traits of introduced and endemic species, 11 calliphorid, two rhiniid and seven syrphid species were identified as candidates with high potential for use in Australian managed pollination services.

Journal ArticleDOI
Differential Staining of Aborted and Nonaborted Pollen
TL;DR: A single staining solution was made by compounding it in the following order (dyes were from British Drug Houses): ethanol, 10 ml; 1% malachite green in 95% ethanol, 1 ml; distilled water, 50 ml; glycerol 25 ml; phenol, 5 gm; chloral hydrate; acid fuchsin 5 ml; orange G, 1% in water 0.5 ml; glacial acetic acid, 1–4 ml.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyamines inhibit biosynthesis of ethylene in higher plant tissue and fruit protoplasts.
Akiva Apelbaum,Alan C. Burgoon,James D. Anderson,Morris Lieberman,Ruth Ben-Arie,Autar K. Mattoo +5 more
TL;DR: Polyamines, as well as putrescine, inhibited auxin-induced ethylene production and the conversion of methionine and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid to ethylene.
BookDOI
Plant growth substances
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a plant growth substances (PGS) for plant growth, which can be found in the following types of plants: (1) Plant growth substances, (2)
Journal ArticleDOI
On the senescence of ovules in cherries
R. Stösser,S.F. Anvari +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that ovules which were not fertilized became progressively senescent 4 to 5 days after anthesis, and about a week after flower opening a rather high percentage of the ovules was non-viable.
Journal ArticleDOI
The control of floral initiation in lychee: A review
TL;DR: An alternative approach involves a critical study of manipulative techniques which restrict vegetative flushing and promote vegetative dormancy under non-inductive conditions, i.e. cincturing, applying growth retardants and withholding irrigation and fertilizers.
