GF 677 (Peache Amnedier) ROOTSTOCK
- A hybrid of peach and almond, this rootstock was developed in INRA Research Institute in France.
- It is commonly used in countries particularly have a coast at Mediterranean.
- It is a strongly growing rootstock, 5x4m or 5x3 m plant spacing can be applied as well as the 5x2m spacing in V or Y cultivation systems.
- It is an ideal rootstock for peach and almonds i limy soils with limited irrigation abilities
- While peach stock can't be planted on the newly removed peach tree, peach stock on GF 677 rootstock can be planted.
- All peach, nectarine and almond species have good compatibility and positively affect the specie on them.
- Reproduction by wood and cutting shoots, but reproduction method is tissue culture.
- They don't enjoy the heavy, airless soils with high levels of underground water.
CADAMAN (Avimag) ROOTSTOCKS
- It is the natural hybrid of P. Persica x P.davidiana species found in Hungary and was developed in INRA Research Institute in France.
- Compared to the GF 677 and Barrier-1 rootstocks, it is a weakly developing rootstock.
- They can be planted in organic material-poor, poor textured, limy and high PH soils.
- It is resistant to root tumor nematode.
- It isn't recommended for heavy soils with high level of underground water, however it is more resistant to underground water then GF 677.
- The area removed from peaches can be re-planted by peaches by using this rootstock.
- It allows the specie on it to yield early and positively affect the fruit size and color.
- It is recently preferred in countries with a coast to Mediterranean, particularly Spain.
BARRİER -1 (Enprean -1) ROOTSTOCK
- It is a rootstock developed in Venice Italy.
- It is a hybrid of Peach x wild Chinese peach It grows same as GF 677.
- This rootstock allows re-planting peaches in place of the removed peaches.
- Retaining to the soil is strong.
- It positively affects thee coloring of the fruits of the specie on it.
- It is resistant to root tumor nematode.
- Resistance to heavy textured soils is better than GF 677 but not as tolerant as GN rootstocks.
GxN ROOTSTOCKS
- It is a hybrid of P. Persica x P. Persica x P. Dulce species and 3 important GN rootstocks are commercially produced.
- The most important GN rootstocks are GN 15 (Garnem); GN 22 (Felinem) and GN 9 rootstocks.
- Garnem rootstock in the most common GN rootstock.
- It is resistant to root tumor nematode.
- It is a rootstock growing strong and retaining well onto the soil.
- It is used as a rootstock for peach, nectarine, plum and almond species.
