Reducing the sink/source ratio of on‐date palm plants during fruit growth has physiological and biochemical impacts on the shift in source–sink limitations

Abstract: BACKGROUNDThe present study examined the impact of reducing the ‘sink’ on the ‘source’ in On‐palms with a bunch number greater than eight. The capacity of leaves and fruit, as well as assimilate loading and unloading in phloem, restrict plant growth and yield. The study evaluated yield components, as well as photosynthetic and hormonal feedback, resulting from source–sink relationships.RESULTSDuring the mid‐Kimri, removing bunches from On‐trees stabilized yield components and fruit size, suggesting that On‐tre… Show more
