Abstract BACKGROUND: Apple 'Golden Delicious Reinders' and 'Gala Mondial'trees were
mechanically blossom‐thinned with 30–77× g (300–480 rpm rotation) and 5 or 7.5 km h− 1 …

Citrus fruits have two abscission zones (AZ), named A (in the pedicel) and C (in the calyx).
Early fruitlet abscission takes place exclusively through AZ A, while at June drop it is …
