Nearly five per cent of all vines grow on their own roots, without having been grafted on to resistant rootstocks. |

Measurements of air conductivity were performed on stem or branch segments of a series of eight unworked apple rootstocks and two scions. |
|
Vegetative propagation through budding, grafting, tubers, rootstocks and tissue culture are major industries. |
|
A few fruit grower associations and progressive orchardists have already started importing virus-free nursery rootstocks. |
|
Plants that form rootstocks can be spurred to regrowth after several years through tillage. |
|
Conventional tillage is effective for reducing populations of many biennial and perennial weeds that may arise from rhizomes or rootstocks. |
|
The calculated hydraulic conductivity of the graft tissue was found to be lower for grafted trees on dwarfing rootstocks compared to invigorating rootstocks. |
|
Vines on weaker rootstocks had fewer long shoots, so higher proportions of older shoots with short one-year-old laterals were therefore retained as the fruiting crown. |
|
In addition, weeds left uncontrolled may harbor insects and diseases and produce seed or rootstocks which infest the field and affect future crops. |
|
The 1999 season was devoted to orchestrating the necessary nursery work in California to get the varieties they had chosen grafted on to rootstocks suitable for their soils. |
|
Many kinds of pistachio trees that aren't cultivated for their nuts are instead used as rootstocks to which the upper, nut-bearing portion of the tree, or scion, is grafted. |
|
Organic managers adhere to the same basic principles when it comes to selecting a site for a new orchard, choosing rootstocks, pruning, and staking or trellising trees. |
|
These native American species have since been crossed with V vinifera to form new varieties, and among themselves to produce the rootstocks used in modern viticulture. |
|
The anatomy of the graft tissue between a rootstock and its shoot can provide a mechanistic explanation of the way dwarfing Malus rootstocks reduce shoot growth. |
|
Dwarf rootstocks became common by the 15th century, and later went through several cycles of popularity and decline throughout the world. |
|
Generally apple cultivars are propagated by grafting onto rootstocks, which control the size of the resulting tree. |
|
McKenry MV, Kretsch JO, Anwar SA Interactions of selected rootstocks with endoparasitic nematodes. |
|
Many of the apple rootstocks traditionally used were bred in England decades ago and are not equipped to deal with today's demands. |
|
Sibley's Patio Quince is a naturally dwarfing variety, grafted on to dwarfing rootstocks to produce a tree that looks fabulous. |
|
What is the process whereby closely related plant cuttings are inserted into stems or rootstocks to produce hybrids? |
|
|
Agriculture experts told on Sunday that rootstocks should be selected for traits such as resistance to diseases and others. |
|
Dwarf rootstocks for apple trees can be traced as far back as 300 BC, to the area of Persia and Asia Minor. |
|
Remorini D, Tavarini S, Degl'Innocenti E, Loreti F, Massai R and L Guidi Effect of rootstocks and harvesting time on the nutritional quality of peel and flesh of peach fruits. |
|
For example, in the late 1800s, North American wild grape rootstocks provided a key source of Phylloxera resistance necessary to develop hardier European grape varieties. |
|
In some crops, particularly apples, the rootstocks are vegetatively propagated so the entire graft can be clonal if the scion and rootstock are both clones. |
|
Rootstocks are integral components of a high-density orchard because they control final canopy size, and a smaller tree canopy means more trees per acre. |
|
Rootstocks are stronger than the varieties grafted on to them. |
|
Rootstocks for fruit trees are either seedlings or propagated by layering. |
