Productivity of apple variety Majesti in the foothill zone of Dagestan

The article presents the results of studying productivity parameters introduced apple variety Majesti on clonal rootstock M9 in agro-ecological conditions southeastern foothill sub-province Dagestan. purpose research is to identify biological potential variety, adaptive for construction intensive-type orchards industrial horticulture zone. It especially important choose optimal variety-rootstock combinations trees, which should be distinguished by early maturity, annual productivity, high commercial quality fruits and environmental sustainability. has great prospects development horticulture. Of unfavorable factors that negatively affect vital activity fruit crops, most often noted are return colds spring frosts autumn, when plants still growing. In accordance with program Federal Agrarian Scientific Center Republic Dagestan, it envisaged study influence different rootstocks (M9, SK-2, SK-7, MM106) variety.
