Comprehensive Analysis of Flowering Patterns in One-Year-Old Long Shoots of Apple Cultivars with Contrasted Bearing Habits
Ayşe Nilgün Atay
Abstract:Before developing orchard management strategies, it is crucial to conduct architectural analysis at the shoot level for the specific type of fruit to be grown. The objective of this study was to analyze flowering patterns in 1-year-old long shoots of three apple cultivars ('Amasya,' 'Braeburn,' and 'Granny Smith') with different bearing behaviors. This analysis aimed to gain a better understanding of their growth dynamics and reproductive activities. The shoot was divided into three consecutive zones (proximal… Show more
