Some treated clusters on all cultivars, however, had more berries than did the control. Weight per berry was decreased by all treatments except 300 ppm on {\textquoteright}Pinot noir{\textquoteright}. The treatments did not affect length of rachis, weight of berries per centimeter of rachis, or soluble solids. With {\textquoteright}Pinot noir{\textquoteright}, chlormequat at 300 and 1,000 ppm increased total acid and decreased the soluble solids/total acid ratio.}, issn = {0002-9254}, URL = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/24/2/69}, eprint = {https://www.ajevonline.org/content/24/2/69.full.pdf}, journal = {American Journal of Enology and Viticulture} }
