The ABA-sprayed plants had an average fruit phloem sap uptake of 0.778ml fruit–1 d–1 and an average phloem sap solute concentration of 301mg ml–1 . Therefore, the solute accumulation per day was 1.04×144.3=150.07mg fruit–1 d–1 in non-ABA-sprayed plants and 0.778×301=234.18mg fruit–1 d–1 in ABA-sprayed plants. Therefore, the results also showed that ABA-sprayed plants had higher …
