- Abstract
Due to climate change, the drought and lime tolerant Prunus mahaleb may gain on importance and become a good rootstock option in the Central-Asian cherry growing regions. Among the mahaleb rootstocks and hybrids there are standard and moderate vigorous types, but their testing in intensive orchards have not been conducted yet. Our paper reports on testing rootstocks, SL 64, Bogdány, Magyar, SM 11/4 clonal mahalebs and the hybrid Maxima 14. Trees of ’Carmen’, ’Vera’, ’Paulus’ and ’Rita’ sweet cherry on the above mentioned rootstocks were trained to the principles of Hungarian Cherry Spindle at spacing of 1.6 x 5 m. Rootstocks SL 64, Bogdány and SM 11/4 proved to be vigorous, while on rootstocks Magyar and Maxima 14 the trees were moderately vigorous, about 80%. ’Carmen’, ’Vera’ and ’Rita’ produced high cumulative yield on Magyar and Maxima 14 without significant differences, while ‘Paulus’ trees were most productive on Bogdány rootstock. ’Carmen’ on Bogdány rootstock, ‘Vera’ on Magyar and Maxam 14 rootstock, while ‘Rita’ on Maxima 14 were more precocious than on SL 64. It is worth mentioning that contrary to SL 64 and Maxima 14, both Magyar and Bogdány rootstocks resulted in abundant fat branching and good fruit size. Our conclusion is that trees on Magyar and Bogdány rootstocks as well as Maxima 14 fit well to the Hungarian Cherry Spindle orchard system with 1250 tree/ha orchard density.
