“…It has good graft compatibility with the main pear cultivars and a higher vigor classification than BA29 (about 20% of the vigor), when combined with Williams and Abbé Fétel, and about 40% when it is combined with Conference. The earliness of fruiting is slightly lower than the BA29 quince, as well [123].…”

“…It is tolerant to Agrobacterium tumefaciens and susceptible to fi re blight. Affi nity with the majority of cultivars is excellent, suitable for medium dense orchards with 1500 trees/hectare (Quartieri et al, 2011). 2) vegetatively propagated quince rootstocks:…”

“…) as well as Asianorigin varieties. Quartieri et al (2011), mentions several reasons for stagnating use of vegetatively propagated pear tree rootstocks. The major reason is their strong growth, delayed fertility, deteriorating quality of fruits (particularly shrinkage).…”

“…The choice of rootstock to use depends usually on the characteristics of the scion; quince is chosen since plants are less vigorous, which make them ideal for high-density plantations and more precocious, whereas Pyrus rootstocks have higher compatibility and are more tolerant to coldness and chlorosis. On the other hand, they are slow to bear fruits, while one drawback of quince is its incompatibility with some pear varieties [16][17][18]. Quince rootstocks such as 'BA29', 'Adams', 'Sydo', or the East Malling (EM) series ('EMA', 'EMC', 'EMH') are employed for the ease of managing with standard cultural practices and dwarfing characteristics, and because they induce early and regular cropping producing fruits of good size and quality [18], while Pyrus rootstocks such as 'Pyrodwarf', the 'Fox' series, or the 'Farold' series (hybrids of 'Old Home' (OH) and 'Farmingdale') are used for their grafting compatibility and improvement of fruit size and quality, among others [18,19].…”
