Background and Aims Water deficit modifies the concentration of aroma compounds grape berries, but little information is available on effect deficits applied at different phenological stages. We evaluated irrigation glycosylated volatile organic (VOCs) responsible for berries Sangiovese Merlot cultivars grafted 1103P or SO4 rootstocks. Methods Results Vines were subjected to either pre- post-ve...

Over the last 20 years stone fruit rootstock development has begun shifting from seedling to clonal types, many of interspecific origin. Publicly funded breeding programs have produced most of these rootstocks due to the time, cost, and risk associated with their development; however, private industry is emerging as a significant contributor of many of the newer rootstocks. Particularly notewor...

Hyper-arid regions are characterized by extreme conditions for growing and lack of water (<100 mm annual rainfall average), where desertification renders human activities almost impossible. In addition to the use irrigation, different viticultural strategies should be taken into account face adverse effects these in which rootstocks may play a crucial role. The research aim was evaluate root...

in this study, the effect of four citrus rootstocks {sour orange (citrus aurantium), bakraeii (c. reticulata × c. aurantium, mexican lime (c. aurantifolia) and volkamerlemon (c. volkameriana)} on orlando tangelo leaf chlorophyll content and mineral element concentrations (n, p, k, ca, na, mg, fe, zn, mn, cl, cu, and b) have been evaluated in completely randomized design with four replications. ...

in this research, catalase activity and leaf chlorophyll stability of satsuma mandarin on some citrus rootstocks under waterlogging condition were studied. experiment was conducted as factorial with randomized complete blocks and 6 replications. the first factor, include 7 soils from east mazandaran and the second factor included 7 different citrus rootstocks: 1. sour orange, 2. swingle citrome...

The influence of seven plum rootstocks (Adesoto, Monpol, Montizo, Puebla de Soto 67 AD, PM 105 AD, St. Julien GF 655/2 and Constantí 1) on individual and total sugars, as well as on antioxidant content in fruit flesh of "Catherine" peaches, was evaluated for three years. Agronomical and basic fruit quality parameters were also determined. At twelve years after budding, significant differences w...

Morphological studies showed that tree shape in Bitter sweet orange and Yuma citrange was spheroid with spreading growth habit and wide branch angle. Leaves were simple with dark green color, medium size and brevipetiolate in Sour orange while Yuma citrange had trifoliate leaves with medium and green color. Bitter sweet orange had the highest leaf lamina length (10.4 mm) than other rootstocks. ...

A hypothesis that cherry rootstocks grown under optimal nutrient conditions are affected less by Pratylenchus penetrans infection than those grown under deficient nutrient conditions was tested by growing four Prunus avium L. rootstocks ('Mazzard', 'Mahaleb', 'GI148-1', and 'GI148-8') at a soil pH of 7.0 over a period of 3 months under greenhouse conditions (25 ñ 2 degrees C). Pratylenchus pene...
