Abstract
AbstractThis experiment was conducted in Cacak region (Western Serbia) in 2008-2010 to determine the effects of Myrobalan rootstock (Prunus cerasifera Ehrh.) and Blackthorn interstock (P. spinosa L.) on the tree growth, productivity and fruit quality traits of five apricot cultivars (P. armeniaca L.) grown under dry, sandy-loam and acidic soil conditions. The orchard established in 2007 at a 5.5 m × 3 m planting distance. The results showed that trees grafted on Myrobalan rootstock appears to induce higher tree growth, yield, cumulative yield and fruit weight when compared with the Blackthorn interstock. Blackthorn interstock showed a tendency to reduce a high vigour of apricot trees on Myrobalan, yield and fruit size. This interstock induced higher SS/TA ratio than Myrobalan rootstock. These results confirms the better adaptation of Myrobalan rootstock to dry, sandy-loam and acidic soil than Blackthorn interstock.
