Growth and development characteristics of fruit and vegetative bud outgrowth of Prunus sibirica L. in relation to physiological fruit drop by Yongqiang Sun, Pengkai Wang, Ce Zhang, Biao Li, Ying Kang, Jindi Yang, Tingting Ren, Jianhua Chen, Shengjun Dong

“…The results showed that the fruit and vegetative bud outgrowth of the “Shanxing No. 1” variety exhibited an S-shaped growth pattern with three physiological stages. The flower and fruit drop of “Shanxing No. 1” lasted for about 70 days with an 89.73% total drop rate and three abscission peaks, which could be divided into the flower abscission stage mainly caused by pistil abortion, rapid fruitlet abscission stage, mainly caused by carbohydrate competition between the fruit and vegetative bud outgrowth; and slow fruit abscission stage mostly related to seed abortion. …”
