Abstract | ||||
Biozyme at 1500 and 3000 ppm alone or combined with gibberellic acid (GA3) at 25 ppm were sprayed at full bloom of persimmon Cv. Costata trees. All treatments increased fruit set (%) and yield/tree as compared with the control. The highest fruit set, yield and retained fruits percentage were recorded by the treatment of 3000 ppm Biozyme + 25 ppm GA3 as compared with the control. On the other hand all treatments reduced fruit weight, volum and dimensions as compared with the control. The treatment of GA3 at 25 ppm alone or combined with Biczyme at 1500 ppm increased significantly fruit frimness as compared with the control. Fruit chemical characters were not affected by all treatments. | ||||
