e0“The present investigation was carried out on 12-year old trees of nectarine (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch var. nucipersica) cultivar May Fire”
e2“Treatments with NAA (naphthalene acetic acid) at 40 ppm when applied two weeks after petal fall reduced the crop load to the greatest extent and improve the yield of superior grade fruits and increase the leaf to fruit ratio and decrease the fruit drop”

Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Chemical thinners were more effective than pruning or GA3 treatments in improving production of superior grade fruits in nectarine.
- Intervention effect NAA at 40 ppm applied two weeks after petal fall improved the yield of superior grade fruits in nectarine.
- Intervention effect NAA at 40 ppm applied two weeks after petal fall increased the leaf to fruit ratio in nectarine.
- Intervention effect NAA at 40 ppm applied two weeks after petal fall decreased fruit drop in nectarine.
- Intervention effect Pruning to retain 40 fruiting shoots plus NAA 40 ppm at 2 WAPF increased shoot growth in nectarine (160.80, 170.20 cm).
- Intervention effect Pruning to retain 40 fruiting shoots plus NAA 40 ppm at 2 WAPF increased tree height in nectarine (3.70, 4.50 cm).
- Intervention effect Pruning to retain 40 fruiting shoots plus NAA 40 ppm at 2 WAPF increased tree spread in nectarine (2.84, 3.60).
- Intervention effect Pruning to retain 40 fruiting shoots plus NAA 40 ppm at 2 WAPF increased leaf area in nectarine (42.71, 40.63 cm).
- Association The effect of chemical thinners in nectarine was less pronounced on trees under severe pruning.
