Figure 2 . While strong axillary shoot production is important to increase the number of potential fruiting sites , these shoots need to be robust enough to survive in low light conditions and sustain high productivity .
Figure 3 . Strong branching from terminal and subterminal buds can produce long barren sections of wood ; this undesirable habit can be observed in second and third-leaf trees .
