They generally see stunted growth compared to Palisade. To identify vigorous rootstocks that compensate for the environmental conditions, we will test a range of rootstocks (8 total) with variable vigor and identify best performers. Depending on level of rootstock vigor, different pruning\/training systems are implemented (see slides). Planted in Spring 2023. We will measure yield, growth rate (vigor), and traits useful for assessing fruit quality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Collaborating researchers:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/aes.colostate.edu\/wcrc\/orchard-mesa\/pomology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dr. David Sterle, Pomologist, WCRC-Orchard Mesa\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>In 2024:<\/strong> Continuing trunk measurements and assessing survival.
