Effects of Short-cut Flowering Branches on Harvest Time, Yield and Quality of Guire No.82 Mango

[Objectives] To further study the technology of short-cut flowering branches for Guire No.82 Mango, adjust its harvest time, increase yield and improve fruit quality, and increase the economic benefits of mango production. [Methods] The experiment of short-cut flowering branches was carried out for Guire No.82 Mango. [Results] At the initial flowering stage and full flowering stage of the primary inflorescence, with short-cut flowering branches and corresponding cultivation techniques, Guire No.82 Mango was easy to extract regenerated inflorescences. Compared with the control group, the flowering period of the regenerated inflorescences was delayed by 30-35 d and 40-50 d, respectively; the harvest time was delayed by 30 and 40 d, respectively; the yield significantly increased by 1.63 times and 2.25 times, respectively; compared with the control group, the number of fruits with embryo increased significantly, which were 1.39 and 2.25 times of the control, respectively; there was no significant difference in the fruit quality at the harvest time. [Conclusions] Short-cut flowering branches at the initial flowering stage and full flowering stage of the primary inflorescence is an effective measure to delay the marketing time of Guire No.82 Mango.
