Agronomic evaluation of potential rootstocks for peach trees

Nutrient Status and Growth Performance of Two Peach Cultivars Budded on Rootstocks with Different Growth Vigor

Rootstocks that reduce tree vigor are in demand for all fruit species, including peach. The study evaluated the suitability of four rootstocks (Prunus besseyi Bailey, Hui-Hun-Tao, Rakoniewicka, and Minnesota) and two peach cultivars (‘RedHaven’ and ‘Harnaś’) for the production of maiden peach trees in a nursery. The pe...

Vegetative propagation of peach tree rootstock genotypes associated with different concentrations of indolbutyric acid

Traditionally, peach rootstock propagation occurs sexually, resulting in genetic variability, non-uniformity among seedlings produced, longer seedling formation times and a delay in the onset of production. Vegetative propagation is an alternative technique for obtaining uniform seedlings and, consequently, more homoge...
