Journal Title: FRUIT GROWING RESEARCH - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
This paper evaluated the growth of some varieties of plum in the central region of Oltenia, depending on the scion/rootstock combination. During the 2012-2014 period, within a plantation located in the proximity of Craiova City, three plum varieties were studied: ‘Carpatin’, ‘Vâlcean’, ‘Tita’, grafted on 4 rootstocks – ‘Oteșani 8’, ‘Pixy’, ‘Miroval’, ‘Roșior văratic’, and the trunk section area (TSA), the crown diameter, the crown volume, the height of trees and the degree of land occupancy were monitored. After the three years of research, depending on the given points, it was found out that ‘Vâlcean’ variety presented medium growth vigour, while the varieties ‘Carpatin’ and ‘Tita’ recorded low growth vigour. Among the studied rootstocks, it was noticed that the ‘Miroval’ rootstock produced higher growth vigour to all three plum varieties.
