“…Lockard (1976) noted that leaf Ca of trees on MM.111 was lower than those on MM.106 or M.9 rootstocks. Lockard (1976) also reported that the level of K in the scion leaves was lower with M.9 than with MM.106 rootstocks or with 'Red Delicious' interstock. Whitfield (1963) reported significantly higher Ca but lower K and P in the leaves of 'Jonathan' than those of 'Cox's Orange Pippin.'…”

“…They also noted that soil applications of lime and foliar sprays of calcium nitrate and calcium acetate resulted in higher Ca accumulation in the leaves of all tested cultivars on hibernal rootstock but had no effect on the leaves of these cultivars on french crab apple. Lockard (1976), in a greenhouse experiment with 'Red Delicious' on MM.111, MM.106, and M.9 rootstocks with and without 'Red Delicious', MM.106, or M.9 interstems reported that rootstock treatments differentially affected the leaf levels of N and Ca over a 4-year period. However, he did not observe differential effects of rootstocks on scion leaf Mg concentration as found by Hoblyn (1940-41) and Awad and Kenworthy (1963).…”

Tree fruit rootstocks are used to influence precocity, tree size, fruit quality, yield efficiency, mineral uptake, and to withstand adverse environmental conditions. In this paper, we will briefly discuss the history and literature of apple (Malus domestica) rootstocks and their effects on scion tree growth, yield, fruit quality, leaf mineral nutrition, and photosynthesis. Then, the results of our long-term study on the effects of rootstocks on tree growth, yield, fruit quality and leaf mineral nutrition, and one season of photosynthesis measurement in `BC-2 Fuji' will be presented and discussed. In this study, `Fuji' trees on `Malling 9 NAKBAT337' (M.9) rootstock had the smallest trunk cross-sectional area (TCA), highest yield efficiency, and were the most precocious followed by those on `East Malling-Long Ashton 26' (M.26 EMLA) and `East Malling-Long Ashton 7' (M.7 EMLA). Trees on M.7 EMLA often had larger fruit with less color than those on M.9 and M.26 EMLA. Trees on M.7 EMLA frequently had greater leaf K than those on other rootstocks. Trees on M.26 EMLA always had greater leaf Mg than those on other rootstocks. Leaves from the current terminal shoots (CTS) of trees on M.9 had higher net photosynthesis and transpiration than those on M.7 EMLA rootstock during 1998 growing season.

“…The influence of apple rootstock on tree size reflects the effect of rootstock on nutrient requirements (Fallahi, 2002). MM106 which classified as semi vigorous vegetative rootstock revealed higher content of K than M9 dwarf rootstock (Lockard, 1976). Fallahi et al(2002) stated that the M9 rootstock revealed the lowest concentration of k in the comparison with M7 and M26.…”

SUMMARYThe study was carried out at the agricultural scientific research center in Sweida-GCSAR, to evaluate the influence of apple rootstocks on N, P and K minerals uptake in the vegetative parts during growth season. Two apple rootstocks; vegetative rootstock MM106 and seedling rootstock Malus domestica Borkh. Which grafted by Golden delicious cultivar were studied. The results showed that MM106 rootstock revealed highest significant accumulation of Nitrogen in shoots in May (1.69%), while the seedling rootstock revealed the highest accumulation of nitrogen in leaves in May (2.81%).The highest fruit concentration of N was in June for the two rootstocks. Likewise, phosphorous content in shoots was the highest in June for the two rootstock (0.214% and 0.213% for MM106 and seedling rootstock, respectively), and the Phosphorous concentration of leaves was the highest in May on the seedling rootstock than MM106 rootstock (0.23 and 0.22%, respectively), fruits significantly revealed the highest P content in August for the two rootstocks which was 0.15% in seedling rootstock and 0.18% in MM106. The K content was the highest for shoots and leaves in May for the two rootstocks, and seedling rootstock revealed higher concentration than MM106. Likewise, fruits significantly revealed the highest K content in August in trees grafted on seedling rootstock (1.15%). Consequently, this investigation showed different responses of rootstocks for uptake and accumulation of N, P and K mineral elements during growth season which lead to establish the correct strategy for fertilization management according to the planted rootstock under rainfed conditions.

“…Apple trees on M 9 rootstocks, for example, had higher foliar Ca and Mg levels than did those on M 7; trees on M 2 had higher foliar P, Ca, and Mg levels than did those on M 7; trees on M 2 had higher foliar P, Ca, and Mg levels than did those on M 16; M 7 rootstocks considerably reduced foliar Mg (18). MM 106 rootstock caused higher foliar Ca than did MM 111 (10,14); and trees on M 26 had significantly higher leaf Mn than did those on M 9/MM 106, M 2, or MM 109 (12). Transport rate of 45Ca and 32P to roots and scion is known to be related to the vigor class of the tree (4).…”

Leaf nutrient composition (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, Zn, and Cu) was determined for 10-year-old ‘Delicious’ apple trees (Malus domestica Borkh.) grown on 21 rootstock and interstem combinations classified according to vigor (standard, semi-standard, semi-dwarf, dwarf). Significant differences in leaf P, K, and Mn were observed between the 4 vigor classifications. P and K were higher in leaves of standard than in leaves of dwarf trees, but leaves of dwarf trees had higher Mn than those of the other size classifications had. “Delicious”/Malling (M)7/Alanarp (A) 2 (dwarf) and ‘Delicious’/M7/Robusta (R) 5 (semidwarf) contained high K and low Mg levels. High Mg and low K were found in dwarf trees on M 2 and M 26 rootstocks. Calcium was higher in leaves of trees on Mailing Merton (MM) 106 rootstock than in those on M 7/MM 104. Trees on M 26 had high Mn. Fruit yield was correlated negatively to tree size and leaf K and positively to leaf Mg and Mn. Other elements were unaffected by the rootstock systems tested, which suggested that the rootstock and interstem combinations had only a minor effect on nutritional status of scion leaves.
