BEHAVIOUR OF THE VEGETATIVE ROOTSTOCK FOR APRICOT APRICOR TO PROPAGATION BY SOFTWOOD CUTTINGS

Journal Title: FRUIT GROWING RESEARCH - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue

Abstract

‘Apricor’ is the first vegetative rootstock for apricot, which was named in Romania, at the Research Institute for Fruit Growing (RIFG) Pitesti, in the year 2006. Average rooting percentage was 80. It is known that well developed radicular system with the cuttings, has a beneficial effect to establishment and development of the cuttings, when planted to be budded in the nursery field. In the case of this experiment we aimed to know the best conditions for obtaining well rooted cuttings in a higher rooting percentage. The best result in respect with the better rooted cuttings was registered for cuttings provided by the bottom of the shoots, when planted at the middle of July, on sand (medium). The higher percentage of rooted cuttings was for the cuttings provided by the top of the shoots (96.67), at the same time, and the same rooting medium.
