Genetically Diverse Peach Seedling Rootstocks Affect Long-term Performance of `Redhaven' Peach on Fox Sand

Effect of Peach Cultivars, Rootstocks and Phytophthora on Iron Chlorosis

The cultivar and rootstock effect on iron chlorosis were studied. The results revealed significant differences among peach cultivars and rootstocks in mineral content. Seasonal changes were also found in the macroand micronutrient content of leaves of peach cultivars and rootstocks. The rootstock St. Julien 655/2 was found to be efficient in K, P, Zn, Fe, Cu absorption and better than seedling ...

Graft Compatibility Between Peach Cultivars and Prunus Rootstocks

Trials were established at Aula Dei Experimental Station (EEAD-CSIC, Zaragoza, Spain) to assess graft compatibility between peach cultivars [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] and new Prunus spp. rootstocks or selections. Peach cvs. Catherina and Tebana and nectarine cvs. Big Top and Summergrand were grafted on peach seedlings, plum rootstocks, almond x peach hybrids, and other interspecific rootstock...

Peach Rootstocks for the United States: Are Foreign Rootstocks the Answer?

New foreign rootstocks for peaches [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] are now being introduced into the United States through commercial nurseries for future sales to stone fruit growers. Almost all of these rootstocks are complex Prunus L. hybrids that are propagated vegetatively. Past experience with foreign Prunus rootstocks has shown that extensive testing is critical to avoid potential problems ...

Preliminary Evaluation of Productivity and Fruit Quality for Seven Peach Rootstocks in Chile

Fruit productivity and quality of eight years peach and nectarine cultivars (Rich Lady, Ryan Sun, Ruby Diamond and Venus) grafted onto Cadaman-Avimag, Viking, Atlas, GxN 15, GF 677, MRS 2/5 and Nemaguard (control) rootstocks were evaluated. A Split Plot experimental design was used, with each rootstock/scion combination as an experimental unit. Total yield, fruit size distribution, number of fr...
