Study of dwarfing rootstocks of peach on myrobalan plum
Using myrobalan plum and Qingzhoumi as rootstocks,and grafting Chunyuan,Chun-yan,and Beijing No.52 peach varieties,after 10 years of cultivation observation,it was found that compared to Qingzhoumi rootstock combinations,the myrobalan plum rootstock combinations resulted in dwarf trees with weaker growth,shorter tree height,smaller crown diameter,fewer total bran-ches,and a higher ratio of medium-short branches to long branches.The thickness ratio between the varieties and rootstocks was smaller,indicating lower compatibility.The fruit of the myrobalan plum rootstock combinations was smaller,but the yield was significantly higher,and the soluble sol-ids content of the fruits was significantly increased,resulting in higher quality.Therefore,myroba-lan plum rootstock combinations are more suitable for facility dwarf.
