| Authors: | W. Poniedzialek, K. Nosal |
| Abstract:
The addition of 1% NAA to the emulsion paint or Funaben 3 used to treat spring pruning cuts in Bancroft apple trees reduced the number and weight of water shoots by 42% and 50% respectively, and significantly increased Ca content, extractable solids and total organic acids in the fruit. Total fruit sugars tended to be increased. | |
