The relationship between the type of fruit-bearing branch and fruit position and the yield and quality of Cuiguan pear was studied.It was found that the total fruit yield on long or medium branches was more than that on short branches.The soluble solids content of the fruits born on long branches was higher than that in short branches,while the fruits form the medium branches had better shapes.Thus,proper pruning could improve the fruit yield and quality.Fruit position on a branch also significantly affected the yield and quality.The fruits on the first to the third positions tended to weigh more and have higher quality than the others.Especially,the second fruit on a branch had the highest yield,best shape and most soluble solids.Even though the weight of a single fruit positioned second did not significantly differ from the first and the third on a same branch,it would be prudent to keep the fruit born on the second position.
