Study was aimed to investigate the effect of rootstock, variety and their combination on mineral nutrition of pear. For this reason, Deveci, Santa Maria and Akca varieties grafted on Quince A, Quince C, BA 29 and OHF 333 rootstocks were used as plant materials. To compare nutritional status of plants, N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Cu, Mn Zn and B analysis were made on leaf samples. According to results, it was seen that individual effect of rootstock and variety and their combinations had significant effect on pear mineral nutrition generally. Although there was a significant variation depending on rootstock and variety differences, we could not reach a certain result which rootstock and variety or their combinations were prominent on general mineral nutrient concentration of pear. We assumed that this was due to preventing of the effectiveness of rootstock or variety because of sufficient nutrient levels in the soil.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
