Estimation of Leaf Emergence in ‘Delaware’ Grape from Daily Mean Temperature to Predict the Optimal Timing for Gibberellic Acid Application to Achieve Seedlessness
Abstract:The number of leaves in 'Delaware' grape is an excellent indicator to determine the optimal timing for gibberellic acid (GA 3) application to fruit clusters to induce seedless berries. To predict the optimal timing for GA 3 application to 'Delaware' grape, we aimed to develop a method to estimate the accumulated leaf number (LN) on the second shoot (which grows from the second dormant bud from the end of the fruiting mother shoot) from the air temperature. This was undertaken using leafing data from a vineyard… Show more
