Kiwifruit Pollination By Wind And Insects In Italy

Di: Stella

These results showed that bee pollination resulted in higher fruit production, and heavier and more homogeneous fruits than artificial pollination. According to these results, we are functionally dioecious The aim of the experiment was to define the wind and the bees effect on kiwifrut pollination. Experiment was carried out for two years in an adult kiwifruit orchard, with a ratio

Kiwifruit (Actinidia spp.) is globally valued for its unique flavor, nutritional richness, and commercial appeal. Achieving premium fruit quality and yield hinges on precise agronomic Figure 1.

Many crop plants rely on insect pollination, particularly insect-pollinated crops which are functionally dioecious. These crops require insects to move pollen between separate plants Low abundances crops for which entomophilous pollination of insects were observed visiting female flowers of both kiwifruit cultivars, and therefore likely minimally influenced kiwifruit pollination. Artificial pollination resulted in the

1. INTRODUCTION Kiwifruit is one of 13 leading global food crops for which entomophilous pollination is essential (Klein et al. 2007). Kiwifruit is dioecious, and insects are needed to

Kiwifruit production and marketing in Italy

METHODS: Many parameters were analyzed in different environments in Italy for many years, (germinability, humidity, conservation at –18 C), pollination system (dry or liquid, using different

What is the major disease of kiwi? – What are the insect pests in kiwi? – What is the disease in the kiwifruit plant? The role of wind and bees in kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa (A. Chev.) C.F. Liang et A.R. Ferguson) pollination was investigated using large cages enclosing 80 mature vines and assembled so as

It is thought that kiwifruit pollination is mainly provided by insects, and to a lesser degree, wind (Testolin et al. 1991, Miñarro and Studies have documented wind pollinated kiwifruit flowers produce perfect pollination similar-sized fruits compared to insect-pollinated flowers (Bellini et al. 1989); however, most evidence Kiwifruit pollination by wind and insects in Italy Article Full-text available Oct 1991

In Argentina, kiwifruit pollination is primarily managed through human, manual pollination and the introduction of honeybee colonies, with lesser reliance on wind or native

Main kiwifruit production areas in Italy.

Craig & Stewart (1988) reviewed the floral architecture and pollination biology of kiwifruit and suggested that there is as much evidence for wind pollination as for insect pollination. In this article we explain how kiwifruit pollination works, and provide a comprehensive list of known fuzzy and hardy kiwi fruit varieties and their compatible pollinators. METHODS: Many parameters were analyzed in different environments in Italy for many years, such as pollen quality (germinability, humidity, conservation at –18°C), pollination

Kiwifruit is dioecious, and insects are needed to transfer pollen from male to female vines because wind pollination is insuf- ficient for a successful kiwifruit yield (Donovan and Read 1990; Costa

Abstract The role of wind in kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa (A. Chev.) C.F. Liang et AR. Ferguson) pollination has been investigated over 3 years at two sites by enclosing single female vines Kiwifruit has gained significant popularity over the past few years, with consumers choosing it for its pleasant taste and high nutritional value and growers loving it for its hardiness, good yields, long self-life, and high prices.

Wind pollination is minimal so insects are necessary for effective pollination. Honey-bees were efficient pollinators when stimulated with sugar syrup containing Actinidia pollen (induction
