Effect of fruit size and yield on the fruit-removal-force within and between olive cultivars

Abstract: 

The fruit-removal-force (FRF) of green mature fruit on trees of 21 olive cultivars (Olea europaea) was determined. A high positive correlation was found between fruit size and FRF, and between fruit size and the thickness of the fruit stalks. The natural FRF was not cultivar-dependent, but was determined by the mechanics of the stalk. All cultivars tested responded to ethephon. The degree of FRF reduction due to ethephon treatments was cultivar-dependent and was generally independent of fruit stalk diameter. The amount of yield per tree had no direct effect on the FRF of the fruits except via fruit size. © 1982.
