Initial performance of own-rooted and budded 'Sunraycer' nectarine plants Isabela Maria Jimenes Newton Alex Mayer Carlos Tadeu dos Santos Dias Simone Rodrigues da Silva 10.6084/m9.figshare.11869443.v1 https://scielo.figshare.com/articles/dataset/Initial_performance_of_own-rooted_and_budded_Sunraycer_nectarine_plants/11869443 <div><p>Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the performance in the field of 'Sunraycer' nectarine plants when own rooted and budded onto 13 clonal rootstocks. For this, flowering, flushing, fruit maturity, vigor, and production were assessed. The time span between the end of flowering and the harvest period was shorter for 'Sunraycer' budded onto the 'G x N.9', 'Santa Rosa', and 'Ishtara' rootstocks. 'Flordaguard' and 'Ishtara' induced the largest and smallest canopy sizes, respectively. 'Flordaguard' resulted in the greatest production, and 'Cadaman', in the lowest. Own-rooted 'Sunraycer' plants produce heavier fruits and can be an alternative to growers.</p></div> 2020-02-19 02:45:55 Prunus flowering flushing production vigor
