Abstract : The effects of NAA, GA3 [gibberellic acid] and CPPU [forchlorfenuron], applied 14 days after blooming, on fruit retention, yield and fruit quality of mango cv. Arumanis was investigated in East Java, Indonesia. CPPU (10 ppm) gave the best result in terms of increasing fruit retention, number of fruits per cluster and per plant, weight of one fruit, fruit volume and leaf area. No significant differences between the quality of fruits harvested from treated and control trees were observed.
