Abstract
The experiment was established at Fruit Experimental Station near Wrocław. Three apricot cultivars – ‘Harcot’, ‘Hargrand’ and ‘Bergeron’ – were budded on three rootstocks: seedlings Somo and clone LS-4 seedlings (P. armeniaca) and Pumiselect®. The aim of the investigation was to evaluate the quality of maiden apricot trees depending on rootstock and cultivar. In the autumn of 2005 the thickest trunks in the nursery had apricot trees ‘Harcot’, while apricot trees ‘Hargrand’ were the best feathered. Clearly the weakest growth was noted of ‘Bergeron’. Irrespective of cultivars, apricot trees budded on Pumiselect® rootstock were characterised of the strongest vigour. Maidens budded on seedlings Somo grew similarly to LS-4 seedlings but more often weaker. Irrespectively of cultivars, the longer root system had all trees on the generative rootstocks – Somo and clone LS-4 seedlings (45–50 cm). The average length of the rooted rootstock Pumiselect® was only 13.4 cm. Number of scaffold and lateral roots was also similar for both generative rootstocks. Cvs. ‘Hargrand’ and ‘Harcot’ on seedlings Somo were characterised by the best quality of root system, whereas ‘Bergeron’ irrespective of rootstocks was the worst rooted.
