Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Different phases of fruit development and utilization have been treated in many textbooks, reviews, and a host of scientific and professional papers. This seems, however, to be the first attempt to bring together case histories of so many different fruits and to present a balanced account of the whole period from set to harvest. Postharvest physiology, which has been in the centre of the picture in many former books, is at the bored line of the subject matter of this book, and has not been fully covered, except in a few cases. For this reason, two separate chapters deal with physiological and pathological aspects of fruit life after harvest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These exciting new companion handbooks are the only ones of their kind devoted solely to the effects of environmental variables on the physiology of the world's major fruit and nut crops. Their cosmopolitan scope includes chapters on tropical and temperate zone species written by scientists from several continents. The influence of environmental factors, such as irradiance, temperature, water and salinity on plant physiology and on vegetative and reproductive growth, is comprehensively discussed for each crop. In addition to being a thorough and up-to-date set of textbooks, the organzation of the two volumes makes them an excellent reference tool. Each chapter focuses on a single crop, or a group of genetically or horticulturally related crop, and is appropriately divided into subsections that address individual environmental factors. Some chapters emphasize whole-plant physiology and plant growth and development, while other chapters feature theoretical aspects of plant physiology. Several chapters provide botanical background discussions to enhance understanding of the crop's response to its environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a convenient, single-source reference, this book examines plant growth substances and their relationship to a wide range of physiological processes, ranging from seed germination through the death of the plant. If offers a clear illustration of the pragmatic uses of plant substances in agriculture and demonstrates how basic laboratory research has translated into increased production and profit for the grower. This work begins by building a solid foundation in the subject, which contains historical aspects and fundamental concepts, and provides a methodology for extraction, purification, and quantification of plant growth substances. This forms the basis for understanding the ensuing chapters that explore the many processes involving plant growth substances, including: * seed germination * seedling growth * rooting * dormancy * juvenility * maturity * senescence * flowering * abscission * fruit set * fruit growth * fruit development * premature drop * ripening * promotion of fruit drop * tuberization * photsynthesis * weed control. Providing a detailed examination of plant growth substances and their relationships to specific physiological plant processes, Plant Growth Substances gives students, researchers, and professionals a much needed reference.

Book excerpt: Flowering and the subsequent setting of fruit is a critical process in the grapevine's annual cycle. When the weather is unfavourable just before and during flowering poor fruit can result, with consequently lower yields at harvest. Such incidents are infrequent in Australian vineyards, but when they occur they have serious commercial consequences for individual viticulturists and the industry as a whole. Peter May, one of Australia's pre-eminent viticultural researchers, has combined his considerable experience in the area with an exhaustive survey of the published research to produce a valuable account of grapevine flowering as it affects the production of the young berries. While there are limited means of redressing poor fruitset, this book contains proposals on how its sometimes devastating impact can be minimised.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grapes (Vitis spp.) are economically the most important fruit species in the world. Over the last decades many scientific advances have led to understand more deeply key physiological, biochemical, and molecular aspects of grape berry maturation. However, our knowledge on how grapevines respond to environmental stimuli and deal with biotic and abiotic stresses is still fragmented. Thus, this area of research is wide open for new scientific and technological advancements. Particularly, in the context of climate change, viticulture will have to adapt to higher temperatures, light intensity and atmospheric CO2 concentration, while water availability is expected to decrease in many viticultural regions, which poses new challenges to scientists and producers. With Grapevine in a Changing Environment, readers will benefit from a comprehensive and updated coverage on the intricate grapevine defense mechanisms against biotic and abiotic stress and on the new generation techniques that may be ultimately used to implement appropriate strategies aimed at the production and selection of more adapted genotypes. The book also provides valuable references in this research area and original data from several laboratories worldwide. Written by 63 international experts on grapevine ecophysiology, biochemistry and molecular biology, the book is a reference for a wide audience with different backgrounds, from plant physiologists, biochemists and graduate and post-graduate students, to viticulturists and enologists.

Download or read book Manipulation of Fruiting written by C. J. Wright and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manipulation of Fruiting contains the proceedings of the 47th University of Nottingham Easter School in Agricultural Science, held at Sutton Bonington, England on April 18-22, 1988. The papers explore developments in the manipulation of fruiting and cover topics ranging from intra-plant competition to pollination, fruit set, and light interception and canopy manipulation. Genetic regulation and chemical manipulation of fruiting are also discussed. This monograph is comprised of 26 chapters divided into nine sections. The first section deals with the interactions that occur between vegetative and reproductive growth, focusing on source-sink effects and dry matter partitioning. The following three sections examine the sequential stages of producing a fruit from flower initiation, dormancy, and anthesis, through pollination to fruit set. Models that describe dormancy and flowering are presented; pollen incompatibility is considered; and the time available for pollination is analyzed. The physiology of fruit set is discussed together with methods to improve fruit set. The next three sections detail methods of manipulating fruiting, either physically by altering plant canopy structure and therefore light interception, genetically by breeding and selection, or chemically by the use of plant growth regulators. This book concludes with a look towards the future using genetic manipulation to alter fruit physiology. This text will be a valuable resource for crop researchers, plant physiologists, geneticists, and others interested in the state of research into fruiting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a member of the working group (WG) on "Temperate Zone Fruit Trees in the Tropics and Subtropics" of the International Society for Horticulture, I was aware of the lack of readily available information needed in many warm-climate locations where temperate fruit crops are grown. The founder of this WG, Frank Dennis, Jr. , was motivated to encourage knowledge transfer by sharing knowledge with many developing countries. We shared his drive and in presenting this book we believe we are doing a service to all persons interested in temperate fruits, but especially to those in tropical and subtropical countries, many of which are developing countries interested in growing these crops and lacking the knowledge needed. In this book, we have collected information covering a variety of different aspects of growing temperate fruit crops in warm climates. As this is the first time such an evaluation of these species has been done, interesting and novel aspects of tree development and fruiting are presented, with stress on elements like dormancy and irrigation that are not of such basic concern in the natural of the temperate zones. We are living in a transition age; horticultural studies habitat are changing and expertise such as can be found in the array of participants in this book is probably not going to be easily found in the future. I hope that this book will broaden our understanding of the fruiting Temperate Zone tree in general and of its adaptation to warm climates, in particular.

Download or read book The Impact of Mechanical Leaf Removal on Grapevine Physiology, Ripening-related Phytohormone Biology, and Fruit Quality in (vitis Vinifera L.) Merlot written by Joshua VanderWeide and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Removal of basal leaves early in the vegetative and reproductive development of grapevines is a tool used to decrease fruit set, lower cluster rot severity, and improve fruit quality. However, the considerable time required for implementation limits its use by grape growers. Efficient mechanization can potentially mitigate these issues, studies are lacking in a cool climate setting where short seasons and humid summers limit grape production. Therefore, the goal of these studies were to compare mechanical leaf removal with the manual removal of six leaves at the pre-bloom and after-bloom phenological stages over two seasons in Pinot Grigio, a tight-clustered cultivar susceptible to bunch rot, and Merlot, which reaches suboptimal fruit quality in some seasons. For Pinot Grigio (Chapter 3), the loss of fruit to gray mold was lowered by all leaf removal treatments in the drier 2017 season, but only manual treatments mitigated loss from sour rot in that year. This indicates that a clear fruit zone and reduced cluster compactness are both needed to lower the effect of cluster rot disease. Only pre-bloom treatments enhanced fruit quality, likely driven by a similar reduction in cluster compactness. The results suggest that mechanical leaf removal at pre-bloom may be used to enhance fruit total soluble solids, while pre-bloom manual removal can be an effective means to reduce fruit loss to sour rot severity.For Merlot (Chapter 4), berry total soluble solids were highest with pre-bloom mechanical treatment. Furthermore, metabolomics analysis revealed that this treatment favored the accumulation of significantly more disubstituted anthocyanins and flavonols and OH-substituted anthocyanins compared with manual application. Given that vine balance was similar between treatments, increased ripening with PB-ME is likely due to enhanced microclimate conditions and higher carbon partitioning through a younger canopy containing basal leaf fragments proximal to fruit. Despite these results, it was not clear which factor was controlling the increase in fruit quality in response to pre-bloom mechanical leaf removal. In Chapter 5, an experiment was established where 60% of leaf area was removed from shoots in three ways: 1) manual removal of 5 leaves (PB-MA), 2) mechanical removal (PB-ME), and 3) simulated mechanical removal (PB-SIM), which was implemented to understand whether PB-ME improves fruit quality via enhanced microclimate conditions, or stress. Major phenylpropanoid classes were enhanced by PB-ME, however neither ABA nor ethylene were similarly altered, suggesting their lack of involvement in promoting phenylpropanoid biosynthesis in response to ELR. Instead, the leaf area at nodes above the fruit-zone was lower in PB-ME compared to C, which increased post-veraison fruit temperature (+2.8°C). These parameters correlated with anthocyanins at harvest. In conclusion, skin phenylpropanoid concentrations are influenced by canopy density above the fruit-zone. Finally, in Chapter 6, the influence of vine balance and light exposure on fruit quality parameters were compared in two locations (Michigan, Italy). Primary metabolism was not significantly altered with the excepting of titratable acidity being decreased by LR8 having the greatest light exposure during ripening. Flavonol biosynthesis was significantly altered by light exposure in both locations, but not by vine balance. The results indicate that fruit exposure to light, rather than source-to-sink balance has a greater influence on flavonoid biosynthesis in grape berries.
