“…Up to 85% of the applied urea can be taken up by the avocado leaf within 2 to 5 days (16). In this study, translocation of 15N to the inflorescence was proportional to the quantity applied (Table 1), substantiating rapid urea uptake and its N translocation out of the leaf before the leaves abscissed.…”

“…Foliage-applied urea N reportedly increased fruit set in avocado (1) and other species, presumably when the internal pools of N were limiting (8,13,18,22). Foliar uptake, metabolism, and translocation of urea is rapid in avocado (16) and other species (7,13,15,18,22). Using isotopically labeled N, it has been possible to demonstrate that rapidly developing inflorescences and fruits are a strong N sink (15).…”
