Controlling Apple Replant Disease in `McIntosh' Apple Trees on Various Rootstock [PDF]

HortScience, 1991
Apple replant disease (ARD) adversely affects development and performance of apple trees planted in old orchard soils; it is characterized by stunted tree growth, which reduces orchard profitability (Hoestra and Oostenbrink, 1962; Mai and Parker, 1967).

Effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi on Pratylenchus penetrans Infestation in Apple Seedlings under Greenhouse Conditions

Pathogens, 2018
A major problem in fruit cultivation in Flanders is replant disease due to a lack of uncultivated soils available for new plantings. Replant disease can cause poor growth and affect time to full production, however Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) can ...
