| | Apple - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Apples have been a very important food in all cooler climates, and it was probably the earliest tree to be cultivated. | | | Apples (or any fruit) planted on a south facing slope in the northern hemisphere (or north facing in the southern hemisphere), will flower early and be particularly vulnerable to spring frost. | | | The trees are susceptible to a number of fungal and bacterial diseases and insect pests. |

| | Controlling Physiological Disorders of Apple Fruit |
| | Fruit with water core are edible, and may have a sweeter flavor, but their storage life is reduced. | | | Since almost all the calcium transport into the fruit occurs in the 4 to 6 week period immediately following bloom, wet or dry weather during this period greatly increases the risk of the development of these disorders. | | | Although most Iowa soils are high in calcium, its uptake by plants is closely related to the soil moisture supply, with roots being unable to take it up whenever the soil becomes either too wet or too dry. |

| | Apple Growth Stages |
| | Final fruit size is a result of the number of fruit on the tree and the growing conditions that year. | | | By the time the fruit are this size they are hard to thin and growers use higher unpredictable rates, in an effort to reduce the crop. | | | As the fruit cluster develops size difference between the king and side blooms become more pronounced. |

| | Apple Fruit Thinning |
| | Thinning is the removal of a portion of the crop before it matures on the tree to increase the marketability of the remaining fruit and to reduce the biennial bearing tendency of the tree. | | | Fruit that is not increasing in size is not growing and will eventually drop. | | | Since fruit trees naturally shed some fruitlets during the thinning season, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish natural drop from a chemical thinning response. |

| | Honeycrisp is a unique apple and will present new challenges for fruit packers as commercial production increases.The variety is susceptible to a number of disorders, including soft scald and soggy breakdown, as well as bitter pit. | | | Another problem related to fruit maturity is stem-end cracking, which is worse with later harvests and can provide opportunities for decay to develop in storage. | | | Watkins said he strongly recommends that packers don't treat Honeycrisp with DPA because of the risk of inoculating the fruit with decay organisms. |

| | Identifying Apple & Other Fruit Varieties |
| | 2) Collect Fruit in Good Condition Many of the samples received for identifications are so covered with disease damage and insect stings that it is impossible to even tell what color the fruit is. Fruit shape and form are one of the identifying characteristics between varieties. | | | Compounding this problem is that all fruits can be propagated by seed resulting in offspring that most often not look anything like the parents. | | | If the tree you collect the sample from is overloaded with fruit then the natural size of the variety is masked. |
