Effects of Abscisic Acid Injection on Sugar and Organic Acid Contents of Citrus Fruit.

Year: 1995

Type: article

Abstract: The effect of exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) injections into citrus fruits in autumn on fruit drop, ABA catabolism, and sugar and organic acid contents were evaluated.Fruit drop increased after ABA injection proportional to the ABA concentration.Ninety-two percent of citrus fruits were retained 16 days after injection with 0.2 ƒÊmol ABA per ABA appears to play a role in increasing sugar content of fruit juice.
