摘要：
Pecan [Carya illinoensis (Wangenh,) C. Koch] tree height was gradually reduced by removing one, two, or three limbs per year at a height < 9 m. Pruning improved tree vigor and color, increased trunk circumference, terminal shoot growth, nut size, and leaf N, P, and Mg, but reduced leaf K and percentage of fancy grade kernels relative to unpruned trees. Yield was not influenced by selective limb pruning.
