Effects of post-bloom low light and girdling on fruit set of Vitis vinifera (L.) cv. ‘Riesling’ and Vitis labruscana (L.) cv. ‘Concord’

Aim: In grapevines, similarly to many woody crops, berry set is a crucial determinant for vine productivity. We reduced vine carbohydrate supply through shading and preventing phloem flow by girdling to investigate the effects on fruit set and berry weight, in field-grown ‘Concord’ (Vitis labruscan...
