Abstract:Equations were developed that could predict the incidence of senescent breakdown, bitter pit, and decay in ‘Cox's Orange Pippin’ apples and senescent breakdown and bitter pit in ‘Bramley's Seedling’ apples. The parameters used to predict the incidences of disorders included fruit Ca, P, and K concentrations; fruit weight; respiration rate; and fruit maturity. Each disorder and each cultivar had a unique prediction equation. Such equations must be established individually for a disorder, cultivar, and, probably… Show more
“…Magnesium and potassium have been considered as part of an index to predict bitter pit ( Bramlage et al, 1985 ;Autio et al, 1986 ). Fallahi and Righetti (1984) proposed the relation between nitrogen and calcium as an important component of a diagnosis and recommendation system (DRIS) for apple.…”
