“…The mean yield efficiency of 'G.213' was around 1.12 in the trials by Macedo et al (2021), while that obtained from this work was 1.14. In other words, 'G.213' maintained its yield efficiency even under extreme replanting conditions.…”

“…However, the 12-month fallow replanting area remained without apple cultivation for 12 months, which is 1 year longer than for the replanted area without fallow. Thus, the productivities obtained from this work in comparison with those published by Macedo et al (2021) suggests the possibility of immediate conversion of apple orchards of the Gala Select cultivar grafted onto the Geneva G.213 rootstock.…”

“…Thus, it is noteworthy that the main characteristics of these rootstocks, such as yield efficiency and production stability, remain unchanged even under extreme replanting conditions. Macedo et al (2021) also highlighted that the G.213 rootstock had the lowest alternation bearing in replanting soil, making it a rootstock of high and stable productivity.…”

“…The classification of 'dwarf rootstock' is related to the efficient control of the vigor of trees induced by rootstock (Denardi et al, 2015). Thus, it is possible to claim that even under extreme replanting conditions the evaluated Geneva rootstocks retained the same vigor characteristics as noted by Denardi et al (2016) and Macedo et al (2021) in replanting areas.…”

“…In general, the most vigorous rootstocks are less affected by apple replant disease when compared to the dwarfing ones, and the tolerance of their root system to harmful agents has a crucial role to play (Isutsa and Merwin, 2000;Leinfelder and Merwin, 2006). Macedo et al (2021) evaluated the productive performance of the Gala Select cultivar grafted on Geneva 'G.213' and on rootstocks currently used in southern Brazil (M.9 and Maruba/M.9) in virgin and replanting areas. In the replanting area, fallow period of 12 months was grown before conversion of the orchard.…”

Geneva® rootstocks in Brazil are known to be efficient in controlling vigor, and are precocious and resistant to diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of apple tree cultivars grafted on the Geneva® rootstocks in severe replant disease areas, by planting 60 days after the eradication. The experiments were implemented in 2017, in São Joaquim and Vacaria. The Gala Select and Fuji Suprema cultivars were grafted onto ‘G.202’, ‘G.814’, ‘G.210’, and ‘G.213’ rootstocks in the Tall Spindle training system. In 2018/2019, total thinning was carried out to promote plant growth. In São Joaquim, partial thinning was carried out in 2019/2020 harvest of ‘Gala Select’. The rootstocks were divided into two groups based on vigor, for both areas and cultivars. ‘G.202’ and ‘G.213’ were 40% less vigorous than ‘G.210’ and ‘G.814’. For ‘Gala Select’, the extreme non-fallow condition mainly affected the vigor and productivity of ‘G.213’ in both areas. At the end of two harvests, ‘G.213’ was 17% less productive than ‘G.210’, contrary to what is observed in areas where the fallow period is respected. However, ‘G.213’ confirmed a greater yield efficiency, which was 27% higher than ‘G.210’. This suggests that a perspective of forecasting production for the third crop is higher for ‘G.213’ than for ‘G.210’. In the case of ‘Fuji Suprema’, the G.210 rootstock was the most productive in both areas. In São Joaquim, ‘G.202’ matched ‘G.210’ in productivity and efficiency as it sprouts better in colder regions. Considering the fruit quality, ‘G.213’ anticipated the maturation with fruits of larger size and higher total soluble solids (TSS) in both areas and cultivars, making it possible to anticipate the harvest. It was concluded that the non-fallow condition does not alter the relative differences in vigor and fruit quality among the rootstocks. However, notwithstanding the overall replant tolerance of these rootstocks, it does reduce productivity by mainly affecting less vigorous rootstocks that need about three crops to overcome the allelopathic effects of the soil and start growing normally. The G.210 semi-dwarfing rootstock is an alternative for the immediate conversion of apple orchards of Gala Select and Fuji Suprema cultivars in southern Brazil.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the agronomic performance of the Geneva® series apple rootstocks G.202, G.213, G.210 and G.814. The rootstock G.202 and G.213 proved to be the less vigorous, being considered dwarfs. For replanting soil, ‘G.210’ was considered an efficient alternative. The ‘G.213’ was the most efficient, in a general point of view, demonstrating that it does not change its yield efficiency and stability characteristics, even under replanting conditions. All rootstocks reached the goal of 120 accumulated tons.ha-1 in Caxias do Sul-RS, highlighting the faster financial return to the growers. ‘G.213’ has higher soluble solids content, indicating the possibility of an earlier harvesting. It is concluded that the G.210 and G. 213 rootstocks are good options for the areas evaluated, under replanting conditions, mainly G.213 for more dense systems and G.210 for areas under extreme replanting conditions.

The use of new rootstocks combined with different training systems have been studied to increase productivity, fruit quality, and reduce costs. Another important factor is the validation of studies under replanting conditions, due to the growing limitation of new areas for planting commercial apple orchards in Brazil. The present study aimed to evaluate the behavior of ‘Fuji Suprema’ and ‘Maxi Gala’ apple trees in two training systems grafted on two rootstocks. The study occurred during the seasons 2016/17, 2017/18 and 2018/19, in an orchard located in southern Brazil in an area previously cultivated with apple trees. A randomized block design consisting of a 2x2 factorial was used, with Tall Spindle and Bi-Axis as the training system and ‘M.9’ and ‘G.213’ as rootstocks of Fuji Suprema and Maxi Gala cultivars. Variables were evaluated to determine tree vigor, as well as yield and fruit quality characteristics. It was observed that ‘G.213’ promoted higher vigor for both cultivars as well as the Bi-Axis training system in the Maxi Gala cultivar. The highest yield was observed in Tall Spindle as well as the rootstock ‘G.213’ in both cultivars. The most significant changes on fruit quality occurred in the Bi-Axis training system, presenting higher intensity of red color as well as ‘Maxi Gala’ grafted on ‘G.213’ rootstock.
