Bicolored display of Miconia albicans fruits: Evaluating visual and physiological functions of fruit colors
(Botanical Soc Amer Inc, 2015-09-01)
PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Most bird-dispersed fruits are green when unripe and become colored and conspicuous when ripe, signaling that fruits are ready to be consumed and dispersed. The color pattern for fruits of Miconia ...
Mathematical Modeling in the Estimation of Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) Fruit Volume
(Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIA, 2010)
Fruit selection by Andean forest birds: influence of fruit functional traits and their temporal variation
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2016-09)
Fruit selection, i.e., the consumption of fruits disproportionately to their availability, results from the interaction between diet preferences and ecological factors that modify them. We assessed the importance of ...
Granadilla Fruit, Trinidad, B.W.I.
(Millards "The Cash Store" Trinidad, 2009-07-21)
A single Granadilla Fruit or Passion Fruit on a branch. The Passion Fruit is round to oval, yellow at maturity, with a soft to firm, juicy interior filled with numerous seeds. The fruit can be grown to eat or for its juice, ...
Fine-tuning the fruit-tracking hypothesis: Spatiotemporal links between fruit availability and fruit consumption by birds in Andean mountain forests
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2012-11)
1. The fruit-tracking hypothesis predicts spatiotemporal links between changes in the abundance of fruit-eating birds and the abundance of their fleshy-fruit resources. 2. While the spatial scale of plant-frugivore ...
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 ...
Does attraction to frugivores or defense against pathogens shape fruit pulp composition?
(Springer, 2008-03-01)
Fruit traits evolve in response to an evolutionary triad between plants, seed dispersers, and antagonists that consume fruits but do not disperse seeds. The defense trade-off hypothesis predicts that the composition of ...

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 ...
Primary metabolite fruit profile is altered in response to source-sink imbalance and can be used as early quality predictors in nectarine
(2016)
Peaches and nectarines are among the most exported fresh fruits from Chile. Fruit acceptance by final consumers
is defined by quality parameters as size, taste, color and juiciness. In these fruits the balance between ...
