Abstract:
... The increase of plant density in new olive orchard systems requires a deeper investigation about plant architecture to understand growth, branching pattern and yield and to select most suitable cultivars. The spatial arrangement of vegetative and reproductive structures helps to explain the fruiting attitude of the plant at different levels: the whole tree, the productive branch and the fruiting s ...

Abstract:
... Using multiple cultivation systems in the pursuit of a year-round production, strawberry growers aim for high production rates and large, high quality fruits. Production potential is established during the plant production phase which takes place on tray fields for the substrate growers in Belgium. 'Elsanta' is the major cultivar used in the different systems throughout the year. In the milder con ...
