Abstract
Previous defoliation studies which have been carried out to identify the timing of evocation in kiwifruit have indicated that evocation occurs in the previous summer.
In this study, buds that were formed on actively growing shoots which had been previously defoliated were smaller and less likely to flower than buds that were formed before defoliation took place.
Early defoliation did not result in complete inhibition of flowering in the following year.
It is suggested that reduction in flowering associated with defoliation is caused by the removal of photosynthates and available resources resulting in weaker shoots which are less likely to flower.
