Abstract:
Yield and fruit quality of Anna apple trees in response to spraying Salicylic acid at 50 to 400 ppm three times were investigated during 2006 and 2007 seasons. Results showed that carrying out three sprays of salicylic acid at 50 to 400 ppm was essential for improving yield and fruit quality of Anna apple trees rather than the check treatment. The promotion was associated with increasing concentration. Spraying Anna apple trees three times with salicylic acid at 200 ppm was favorable for enhancing yield and fruit quality of Anna apple trees.
