Opis

What are the effects of various treatments on total sugar content of peach fruits? Acid ratio of peach fruits? All the answers to these essential questions can be found in this book. On the basis of results of the book, there were a significant variation in growth of plant, fruit quality and yield of the low-chill peach plants with different micro nutrient treatments. The plant biochemical and plant nutritional parameters were also significantly affected by different micro nutrient application. However, no significant change in plant biochemical parameters like pH and pectin content were observed during the two year study. Thus, from this study it may be concluded that NPK + 0.1 % H3BO3+ 0.5 % ZnSO4, 7H2O + 0.5 % FeSO4, 7H2O could be considered as a best treatment in low-chill peach cv. Sharbati to improve the yield and quality of the fruits as well the plant health.
