| Abstract:
Different morphological characters viz., Trunk Cross Section Area (TCA), Canopy Volume, Shoot extension growth, Leaf area and Relative shoot growth rate (RGR) exhibited significant correlations with fruit set (R2=0.99) yield (-R2=0.92). Besides, tree productivity was also found to be influenced by foliar nutrient status (R2=0.97; 0.93 and 0.51 for fruit set, yield and oil content, respectively) and soil status (R2=0.97; 0.88) also improved for fruit set and yield of olives. | |
