Abstract

Abscission was studied in immature apple fruits (cv Golden Delicious) during the physiological drop. Fruitlet shedding is preceded by a stimulation of ethylene biosynthesis and a gain in sensitivity to the hormone. Experiments were performed on abscising fruitlet (AF) and non-abscising fruitlet (NAF) populations. AF were obtained from lateral fruitlets of trees sprayed with benzylaminopurine (BAP) at 200 ppm, 17 days after petal fall (APF) with a fruit cross diameter of about 10–12 mm.
