Nutrient Distribution and Requirement of ‘Forelle’ Pear Trees on Two Rootstocks

Accurate water and fertilizer management are essential in modern high intensity orchard systems to enable the manipulation of both reproductive and vegetative development. Studies have been conducted to establish the annual plant fertilization requirements, of several tree crops but there exists little information regarding the requirements of pear trees on rootstocks of differing vigour. Niney...

Rootstocks for Size Control in Apple Trees

Uses for evolutionary trees.

The general impression of molecular evolution is often that one sequences a gene from a number of organisms and infers the evolutionary relations of the organisms. Indeed, if the sequences turn out to be orthologous and the data robust, one will get a phylogeny (tree) depicting those historical relations. But what one really obtains is a gene tree (I shall henceforth assume that the data are ro...

Evaluation of Pyrus and Quince Rootstocks for High Density Pear Orchards

High density planting systems are a prerequisite to economise the use of land and labour costs of orchards. Dwarfing rootstocks controlling the vigour of the scion cultivars form the basis for such orchards (Wertheim and Webster, 2005). In the Netherlands, rootstock research is limited to and focussed on testing rootstocks selected abroad. For the Dutch pear growers the main selection criteria ...

اثر پایه‌های مختلف بر رشد رویشی و شاخص‌های فتوسنتزی دو رقم گلابی شاه میوه و نطنز

The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the influence of four clonal rootstocks (Quince A, Quince B, Quince C, PQBA29), and two seedling rootstocks (Gownjony and pear) on growth and performance of two pear scion cultivars namely Shahmiveh and Natanz. In the course of the experiment, vegetative growth indices including, current’s season shoot length, height of scion cultivars, trun...
