EFFECT OF SOLAR RADIATION ON SOME GROWTH PARAMETERS OF PEACH FRUITS

Authors:   F. Loreti, S. Morini, R. Muleo, C. Masetti, C. Vitagliano
Abstract:
Trials were carried out with the purpose of studying the effect of solar radiation on some growth parameters in fruits of the "Stark Redgold" nectarine. The most conspicuous variations were recorded in fruits at the 3rd growth stage; in particular deprival of solar radiation in this period increased fresh weight and fruit water content but reduced flesh firmness and modified diameter proportions.
