Mi.P.A.F. Targeted Project for Evaluation of European and Cino-Japanese Plum Rootstocks in Italy: Results of Six Years of Observations
2007
The Mi.P.A.F. (Italian Ministry of Agriculture) targeted project “National Lists of Recommended Rootstocks and Cultivars”, coordinated by Prof. F. Loreti, University of Pisa, aims at evaluating the performance of fruit rootstocks introduced into the Italian nursery market. As part of this project, trials were established to compare some of the most interesting rootstocks for European and Japanese plum in 9 different locations in Italy. The rootstocks tested were: ‘Citation-Zaipime’, ‘GF 31’, ‘Marianna GF 8/1’, ‘Ishtara-Ferciana’, ‘Jaspi-Fereley’, ‘Julior-Ferdor’, ‘Myrobalan 29C’, ‘Myrobalan B’, ‘MrS 2/5’ and ‘Myrocal’. In 1995, nine orchards were planted at 5 × 5 m spacing; in each orchard,…
Rootstock Evaluation for European and Japanese Plums in Italy
2012
The continuous update coming from fruit trees genetic improving projects determines constant innovations in terms of cultivars and rootstocks availability. In Italy, since 1995, the National Government has developed a research activity spread over the entire National territory. The project, which involves several Research Units, is related to all major fruit tree species and also plum regarding new Japanese and European cultivars as well as new rootstocks. The evaluation is performed by using the same experimental protocol, focusing on the vegetative and reproductive traits as well as on all aspects related to fruit quality. This paper shows data collected since the planting in 1995 from fe…
