| Summary, etc. biblio.abstract | The present study investigates the effects of climatic<br/>variability on the reproductive development, flower sex<br/>ratios, and fruit set of Litchi chinensis cv. Dehradun in<br/>Himachal Pradesh from 2021 to 2023. Results reveal<br/>that cooler temperatures during floral bud induction<br/>(November–December) favoured balanced flower sex<br/>ratios and floral differentiation, promoting a successful<br/>fruit set. Higher temperatures in December 2022, however, led to increased vegetative growth and reduced<br/>reproductive output. Early flowering in January was<br/>advanced by cooler conditions in 2021–22, while improved rainfall and humidity further supported panicle<br/>health and fruit retention. Warmer April–May conditions contributed to elevated fruit drop and cracking,<br/>impacting yield. Additionally, cooler temperatures encouraged longer, more robust panicles, positively influencing flower production. These findings highlight<br/>the significance of cooler temperatures during key<br/>stages of litchi development and suggest the potential<br/>of adaptive practices, such as supplemental irrigation<br/>during dry spells, to counter climate impacts on yield<br/>and quality. |
