Abstract

•A red net shading 50% increases apple tree water use, limiting fruit growth.•A red net shading 50% is not advisable for apple production when water is limited.•A white net shading 50% lowers crop water use, representing a useful tool to save water.•A blue net shading 50% improves fruit growth, despite intermediate sap flow rates.
