The interests of pruning
Pruning = an important management of trees:
1
introduction Material and methods results discussion
Aims of the study
Pruning leads to a strong regrowth of
the canopy
Vegetative growth affects flowering
and fruiting(Capelli et al., 2016)

Characterize the direct effect of pruning on vegetative growth to
better understand the indirect impact on the yield

introduction Material and methods results discussion
Aims of the study
Characterize the effects of pruning on
vegetative growth

• How pruning stimulates vegetative
growth? More GUs? More burst GUs?
• Where and when vegetative growth
is stimulated?
Characterize the pruning
• At the tree scale: amount of removed
fresh matter
• At the axis scale: depth of pruning
Decouple the 2 factors
To decompose vegetative growth in
elementary processes

Botanical recalls
Mango tree = succession of growth units
Growth Unit (GU): portion of the axis developed during an uninterrupted period of
growth (Hallé and Martin, 1968)
It exists kindship links between GUs:
- mother GUs produce one or several daughter GUs
Mother GU
Mother GU
Daughter GUs
Daughter GUs
- Growth level: GUs at the same distance from the tip

Discussion and perspectives
Pruning stimulates vegetative growth locally and at
distance (Fumey et al., 2011)
Study the impact of vegetative growth on flowering
and yield
positive relationship between yield and leaf
area per tree (Davie and Stassen, 1997)
An important regrowth can delay or prevent
flowering (Menzel and Lagadec, 2016)
