Dynamics of chilean fruit exports from a regional perspective
(Universidad de Concepción, 2020)
Forest and agricultural exports, particularly fruit exports, are one of the backbones of the Chilean economy. In general, the study of this type of exports has been approached from a local perspective, regardless of the ...
Pruning severity affects yield, fruit load and fruit and leaf traits of ‘Brigitta’ blueberry
(Sociedad Chilena de Ciencia Suelo, 2014)
Pruning is crucial to balance productivity and fruit quality in blueberry orchards. Slight, conventional and severe
pruning treatments were applied on 4- and 5-year old bluberry plants cultivar ‘Brigitta’ to evaluate their ...
A model for canning peach crop value using a software for dynamic modeling
(International Society for Horticultural Science, 2017)
In order to optimize fruit thinning of canning peaches, considering yield and pulp fraction or canned fruit as a function of crop load, a model to estimate crop value was built using the software Stella®. Since crop value ...
Kiwifruit Quality Related to Position on the Plant
(ISHS, 2014)
Although kiwifruit have been grown and exported since decades in Chile, early
fruit softening is still an important problem. Some studies relate fruit quality
problems to climate, orchard and fruit management and high ...
Effects of Calcium Content and Calcium Applications on Softening of ‘Hayward’ Kiwifruit
(2007)
Despite the importance of calcium content and the effects of calcium
applications in many fruit species, no clear relationship between fruit Ca content
and early softening is established in kiwifruit. Diverse results ...
Identification of a conserved set of cytokinin-responsive genes expressed in the fruits of Prunus persica
(Springer, 2020)
Ethylene plays an essential role in the ripening of peach, a climacteric stone fruit. However, several studies have shown that other phytohormones may alter fruit organoleptic properties, nutritional value, and overall ...
Effects of a local tomato rootstock on the agronomic, functional and sensory quality of the fruit of a recovered local tomato (solanum lycopersicum L.) named “Tomate limachino antiguo”
(MDPI, 2022)
The Old Limachino Tomato is a valuable fruit with exceptional nutritional values and organoleptic sensory properties. However, it suffers from a short shelf-life, compromising post-harvest behavior. As an attempt to improve ...
PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF Melia azedarach L. FRUIT AND LEAF FOR USE AS BOTANICAL INSECTICIDE
(2009-03)
A study was undertaken of the physical and chemical characteristics and insecticide properties of melia (Melia
azedarach L.) (Meliaceae) fruit and leaves; melia has been introduced in Chile for ornamental purposes. ...
Vegetative and Reproductive Development of ‘Lapins’ Sweet Cherry Trees under Rain Protective Covering
(ISHS, 2014)
A study was carried out to evaluate the effect of rain protective covers on the
vegetative and reproductive development and fruit quality of sweet cherry trees. The
trial was conducted in the 2010-2011 season in a ...
Modelling physiological and environmental factors regulating relative fruit set and final fruit numbers in apple trees
(Taylor & Francis, 2020)
Chemical thinning of apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) has been practised for 50 years but it remains an unpredictable part of apple production with large variations from year to year and within years. Carbohydrate availability ...
