Forchlorfenuron, N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N-phenylurea (CPPU), is often used to promote fruit growth and improve production. The role of CPPU in kiwifruit growth has been established. However, the correlation between fruit weight and nutritional metabolism during development after CPPU treatments remains largely undetermined. Here, we surveyed the variations in weight and nutrient components of the 'Hongyang' kiwifruit (<i>Actinidia chinensis</i>) when CPPU was sprayed on fruit 25 days after anthe ...[more]
