| contents | Induction of off-season flowering in custard apple (Annona squamosa L.) cv. Balanagar G.M. Vinay R. Chithiraichelvan Agrociencias off urea season Pruning defoliation Pruning and defoliation are essential operations for inducing off-season flowering and fruiting to yield betterquality and quantity of fruits in custard apple. Trees were subjected to two levels of pruning (25% and 50%) combinedwith use of chemical defoliants (urea 5%, Ethrel 2000ppm, potassium iodide 1%, or ortho-phosphoric acid 1%)besides the Control, with each treatment replicated thrice. Early initiation of flowering and better vegetative growthwas seen in pruned (25%) and defoliated trees than in the Control or other treatments. Maximum off-season yield(10.33kg/ plant) was obtained in T4 (25% pruning, combined with 5% urea spray as defoliant) and T6 (25% pruning,combined with 1% potassium iodide-spray as defoliant). Findings of this investigation helped standardize pruningand defoliation practices on a scientific basis for off-season production of custard apple fruits. 2015 artículo científico 0973-354X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=577061451005 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5770 Journal of Horticultural Sciences application/pdf Society for Promotion of Horticulture Journal of Horticultural Sciences (India) Num.1 Vol.10 |
