Open full text 6 citations

Abstract

Abstract The influence of two rootstocks on leaf nutrient concentrations of ‘Montmorency’ sour cherry ( Prunus cerasus L.) was studied at two locations for 4 years. Trees on Mazzard ( Prunus avium L.) rootstocks were generally higher in leaf K, Ca, B, N, and Mn concentrations, but lower in leaf Mg than trees on Mahaleb ( Prunus mahaleb L.) rootstocks. Differences due to rootstocks did not appear to be related to crop load or tree vigor.
