Abstract: | The effects were studied of different concentrations of cycloheximide on the chemical deblossoming of mangoes. Very good results were obtained with 250 and 500 ppm and the panicles were completely killed within ten days of application. Before the old panicles were completely shed, new panicles which ultimately set fruits began to emerge. |
