“Maycrest” peach trees (Prunus persica L. Batsch) grafted on four different rootstocks were established in a calcareous soil with high content in total (mean 34%) and low in active (mean 6%) CaCO3. It was found that the highest degree of iron chlorosis appeared on the peach seedling rootstock ID 20, followed by the almond × peach hybrid I × Ne 2, which influenced negatively the mean fruit weight. Tree growth and fruit yield per tree were higher on almond × peach hybrid rootstocks GF 677 and Adafuel compared with I × Ne 2 and ID 20, although yield efficiency was not affected. |
