Abstract

Parthenocarpy was influenced unfavourably by high temperatures. The effect of high day temperatures could partly be compensated by low night temperatures. A temperature regime of 23/17 deg C seemed to be optimal. The influence of daylength and light intensity are discussed. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)
