Apple dwarfing rootstocks cause earlier shoot termination and reduced root and shoot mass. To identify physiological factors responsible for rootstock-induced growth restriction, we compared ...

The use of apple rootstocks has transformed modern orchard management by enabling precise regulation of tree size and improving overall performance. Dwarfing rootstocks, in particular, manipulate ...

This paper considers statistical analyses for comparing the distribution of root length density (RLD) of apple trees under different rootstocks and tree spacing. The source data included RLD values ...

This research was carried out to compare several attributes pertaining to the growth, fruit and yield of four apple cultivars, i.e. ‘Golab-kohans’, ‘Fuji’, ‘Starking’ and ‘Delbar estival’. These ...
