in vitro propagation of az x m9 new apple rootstock resulted of breeding program of vegetative apple rootstock in iran was investigated. nodal explants were inoculated in murashige and skoog (ms) medium supplemented with various concentrations of 6-benzylaminon purine (bap) (0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 mg/l) alone or with naphthalene acetic acid (naa) (0.1 mg/l). we examined the effect of different concen...

rootstock and cultivar selection is the most critical decision at the time of an apple orchard establishment. tree size, yield and fruit quality are affected by roostock and cultivar. non-sufficient study of rootstocks and cultivars effects on mentioned traits will lead to incorrect result or failure in orchard managing. in this study the effects of three vegetative rootstocks (mm106, mm111 and...

fruit yield efficiency and some vegetative characteristics of commercial and spur type apple. cultivars was evaluated in dr. nakhjavani field station, orumieh, iran, in 2008 and 2009 growing seasons. apple cultivars included: red spur, red chief, golden spur, yellow spur, fujii, red delicious, cooper spur, red cooper spur, jonathan, golden delicious, oregon spur, jonagold. the experimental desi...

Apple scions with diverse growth habits were grafted on various size-controlling rootstocks and morphological characteristics were measured after 6 years of growth in the field. Scion had more influence than rootstock on monthly growth rate. Across all rootstocks, scions with spreading growth habits grew rapidly in April and May and achieved most seasonal growth earlier than scions with upright...

Over the last 60 years, planting densities for apple have increased as improved management systems have been developed. Dwarfing rootstocks have been the key to the dramatic changes in tree size, spacing and early production. The Malling series of dwarfing rootstocks (M.9 and M.26) have been the most important dwarfing rootstocks in the world but are poorly adapted in some areas of the world an...
