This study presents results of two-year research (2016‡2017) of effect of plant growth regulators GA4+7 1.8% + BA 1.8% and Prohexadione-Ca (applied individually or in combination) on fruit quality of pear cultivars ‘Williams’ and ‘Abate Fetel’. Examination of these effects was conducted by analysis of the fruit weight, dimensions (length and width), fruit firmness, total soluble solids content, and number of seeds per fruit. Within both studied cultivars, application of GA4+7+BA in the full flowering phenophase proved to be most effective considering the fruit size. Individual application of the Prohexadione-Ca during the same phenophase did not significantly affect fruit characteristics of the observed cultivars.
