Study on the number of leaves on cane that influence on size and quality of the fruit of kiwifruit was conducted during November 1999-November 2000 at the Royal Angkhang Research Station, Fang district, Chiangmai. The treatment was a leaf number of kiwifruit 10, 15, 20 leaves per cane and control. It was found that fruit from 20 leaves per cane of kiwifruit cv. Bruno had the largest fruit weight and the longest fruit length (64.97 g and 7.67 cm, respectively). Highest total soluble solids content was found in 20 and 15 leaves per cane (14.8 and 15.3 deg Brix, respectively). All treatments of varying leaves number did not show any significant difference in fruit firmness. In kiwifruit cv. Hayward, it was found that the longest fruit length and the highest fruit firmness (8.47 cm and 27.75 N, respectively) was found in those canes having 20 leaves. Similarly fruit weight and total soluble solids were not different among the treatments of varying leaf number.
