Title: Performance of ´Starkspur Supreme Delicious` Apple Over 10 Years at Three Axillary NC-140 Planting Sites
Authors: M.L. Kaps, G.M. Greene and D.C. Ferree
Abstract:
A partial compliment of the 1984 NC-140
apple rootstocks were planted in axillary sites in
Ohio (Ripley), Pennsylvania (Biglervifle), and
Missouri (Mountain Grove). The following ten
rootstocks were common to the axillary sites:
SDL, MAC.l, CG.24, M.4, AL.800, M.7EMLA,
P.l, M.26EMLA, CG.10, P.22. The rootstocks
CG.24, CG.10 and AL.800 were unique to the
axillary sites.
Tree loss exceeded 30% in all
axillary sites for AL.800 and in OH and PA for
MAC.39. CG.24 and CG.10 had high loss in MO
(60%) and OH (40%), respectively.
CG.24 trees
were similar in size to SDL. in all axillary sites.
AL.800 was similar in size to SDL. in OH. but in
PA and MO they were similar to M.7EMLA.
CG.10 trees were similar in size to M.26EMLA
in OH, but were smaller in PA and MO. CG.24
and AL.800 had cumulative yield and efficiency
similar to SDL. in all axillary sites.
CG.10
cumulative yield was similar to SDL. in OH,
but lower in PA and MO. Yield efficiency of
CG.10 was high in all axillary sites, similar to
M.26EMLA.
