This study was carried out during the seasons of 2021-2022 to study the effect of GA3 plus urea each alone or with trunk girdling and bunches tipping on yield and bunch quality of Sultana 'H4 strain' grapevines. The data reveal that spraying vines with GA3 plus urea at the beginning of (15-20%) flowering significantly reduced the number of berries per bunch and the compactness coefficient of the bunch than the control. Furthermore, sprayed vines with GA3 plus urea with both trunk girdling and bunches tipping significantly produced a higher bunch weight, berry weight, and size. Despite this, treated bunches with GA3 plus urea gave no clear effect of SSC/acid ratio in berry juice than the control but increased the values of total chlorophyll a and b content in berry skin. Whereas, when girdling the trunk and tipping the bunch produced a higher SSC/acid ratio in berry juice and total carotenoid content in berry skin than the control.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
