1, bud dazzle type
Most male kiwi fruit tree has prominent bud eyes, while the female tree has sunken bud eyes. After flowering, the ovary of the female tree is obvious, and small fruit will gradually appear after pollination, while the control male tree has no ovary and will not bear small fruit. You can clearly distinguish the two by comparing them together.
2. Bark morphology
The bark of male kiwi fruit tree is rough to the touch, with obvious spots and round stomata, while the bark of female trees is slightly smooth to the touch, with shallow spots and long stomata, which is completely different to the touch.
3. Internodal differences
There are also differences between male and female kiwifruit seedlings, which can also be distinguished by the distance of pitch. For example, the branches and nodes of male kiwifruit seedlings are short and thick, while the branches and nodes of female kiwifruit seedlings are slightly longer than those of male kiwifruit seedlings, and the petiole and tree shape will be a little loose.
4. Different blades
The leaves of male and female kiwifruit saplings are also different. The leaves of male saplings are smaller, while those of female saplings are larger. Moreover, the leaves of male saplings are richer and fuller, the leaves are fluffy and dense, and the color is dark green. The leaves of the mother sapling are thin and rough, with poor hand feel and slightly lighter color.
