Abstract

Optimising fruit tree productivity largely depends on physiological traits that regulate carbon acquisition and non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) partitioning. In mango (Mangifera indica), the contribution of NSC reserves and leaf functionality to fruit development under intensified orchard systems remains poorly understood. This study provides the first integrated, seasonally resolved comparison of leaf function and NSC dynamics between mango cultivars differing in productivity, identifying physiological traits associated with yield and NSC use efficiency.
