1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) is the immediate precursor of ethylene in plants. Accede SG containing ACC as active ingredient has been registered as a chemical thinner in the US for stone fruit and apple. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of weather parameters on Accede SG efficacy. In a series of experiments in Oregon and California in the field and growth chambers, we evaluated the relationship between flower/fruitlet abscission caused by ACC and weather parameters in peaches. In field trials, ACC at 300 mgL-1 and 600 mgL-1 was sprayed on a daily basis to different set of peach trees throughout the bloom period and correlated fruit set data with daily weather parameters. From these field trials, it became apparent that flower/fruitlet abscission caused by ACC is in negative relationship with daily minimum and maximum temperatures. These findings were confirmed by greenhouse studies where increase in nighttime temperature reduced thinning efficacy of ACC. No close relationship between thinning efficacy and relative humidity was found. We created three models to predict ACC thinning efficacy using weather parameters and ACC spray concentration.
