Effects of different irrigation regimes on a super-high-density olive grove cv. “Arbequina”: vegetative growth, productivity and polyphenol content of the oil (2016, background): “4b) that is known to affect fruit weight (Fig. 5; Briccoli Bati et al. 2006; Hartmann 1949, 1952; Lavee and Wodner 2004; Michelakis et al. 1994).”
Productivity of olive trees with different water status and crop load (2007, background): “Lavee and Wodner (2004) suggested that olive oil production is primarily a function of the amount of mesocarp available, and that the mesocarp:endocarp ratio is closely related to fruit size, which is partially a function of crop load.”
Summer deficit-irrigation strategies in a hedgerow olive orchard cv. ‘Arbequina’: effect on fruit characteristics and yield (2011, background): “The dominance of fruit number, as the parameter that determines oil production (Table 5), is due to the amount of mesocarp developed by a tree (Lavee and Wodner 2004).”
