These results indicate that the increase of sugar content in juice sacs by delayed harvest was contributed by the continuous movement of photosynthates into juice sacs driven by the specific 14C radioactivity gradient in the pathway of photosynthates translocation.
During the last three years delayed harvest was tested at Zigui and Xingshan of Hubei and Gannan of Jiangxi, covering several cultivars like Frost, Red Flesh navel orange, Newhall and Jincheng sweet orange.
Delayed senescence caused by either too much nitrogen fertilizer or an adoption of lodging-resistant cultivars that stay " green " too long results in much non-structural carbohydrate in the straw and leads to low harvest index.
