“…Starkspur Supreme Delicious was significantly different when grafted on the rootstocks M 7 EMLA, M 9, M 26 EMLA, and M 27 EMLA (Rom et al 1991). Kennedy et al (1980) reported that leaf N concentration was more influenced by environmental factors than by rootstock genotype. Leaf P concentration of scions on M 7 were lower than on MM 106, whereas leaf K concentration of scions on MM 109 and seedling were higher than those on MM 106 and M 7 (Table 2).…”

The performance of the apple (Malus domestica Borkh) cultivar Imperial Double Red Delicious (Imperial D.R.D.) grafted on the following 5 rootstocks: (I) seedling, (ii) M 7, (ii) MM 104, (iv</i) MM 106, and (v) MM 109 was investigated. The highest yield per tree was recorded for trees on seedling rootstock, while the lowest for the cultivar grafted on M 7. Production efficiency of Imperial D.R.D. was higher when grafted on MM 106 and M 7, intermediate on seedling and MM 104, and the lowest on MM 109. The highest leaf photosynthetic rate (Pn) was measured for scions grafted on seedling although it was not significantly different from MM 109. Nitrogen concentrations of leaves of the cv. Imperial D.R.D. grafted on M 7 and MM 106 were significantly lower in comparison to the seedling variant. Flesh firmness at harvest, pH of juice at harvest, soluble solids content and titratable acidity at harvest and after four months of storage were not significantly different among the rootstocks.

“…The higher concentration of leaf K in the trees on M.7 EMLA trees, as discussed earlier, is a good example for year-to-year variation of leaf minerals as a result of crop load changes. Several researchers have found yearto-year variation in the mineral compositions of apple leaves (Eaton and Robinson, 1977;Kennedy et al, 1980). Kennedy et al (1980) noted that year-to-year differences in leaf N and P concentrations were greater than the rootstock differences, whereas significant influences of rootstocks were seen for leaf K, Mg, and Ca.…”

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.

“…In many grafted cultivated species, the vegetative growth of the scion and the mineral nutrition are strongly affected by the rootstock; for example, the rootstock genotype influences the elemental composition of the scion in mandarin (Fallahi and Rodney ), apple (Kennedy et al. ) and oranges (Smith et al. ).…”

Background and Aims: Both rootstocks and mineral nutrition, particularly nitrogen (N), are known to affect many aspects of plant development including the control of scion vigour. In this study, we investigated the role of the rootstock genotype in grafted grapevine responses to N supply in terms of the root and leaf ionomes, scion vigour and whole plant biomass. Methods and Results: Vitis vinifera cv. Cabernet Sauvignon was grafted on two rootstock genotypes known to confer high and low vigour. Plants were grown for 60 days under three levels of nitrate supply. Stem, leaf, trunk and root biomass, and the concentration of 13 macroelements and microelements in roots and leaves were measured. High scion vigour was associated with a high concentration of elements in the leaves. The concentration of some elements in the leaves, such as phosphorus, was affected by the N supply differently in the two scion/rootstock combinations. Conclusion: Differences in rootstock conferred vigour were associated with particular shoot and root ionome profiles, and these responses were dependent on N supply. Significance of the Study: These results demonstrate that rootstocks alter scion growth and the leaf ionome in response to N supply.
