Abstract
(2-Chloroethyl) phosphonic acid (ethephon) applied as a foliar spray at 1000 and 2000 ppm to 3-, 4-, and 5-yr old nonbearing seedlings of apple (Malus pumila Miller) significantly increased the percentage of trees flowering for the first time and the total number of flower clusters per tree.Keywords
