Rootstock-scion signalling: key factors mediating scion performance.
Although the scion genotype often has a dominant effect on most agronomic traits, the rootstock introduces new sources of genotypic and phenotypic variability in the crop, due to rootstock×scion×environment interactions. These interactions are essentially based on hydraulic and chemical signals through the xylem (root to shoot) and the phloem (shoot to

Characterising prediction error as a function of scale in spatial surfaces of tree productivity
Background Two indices, the 300 Index and Site Index, are commonly used to quantify productivity of Pinus radiata D.Don within New Zealand. Although maps of these indices exist, availability of new data and modifications to underlying models makes a ...

Chasing genetic correlation breakers to stimulate population resilience to climate change
Global climate change introduces new combinations of environmental conditions, which is expected to increase stress on plants. This could affect many traits in multiple ways that are as yet unknown but will likely require the modification of existing ...

Assessing the Potential of Backpack-Mounted Mobile Laser Scanning Systems for Tree Phenotyping
Phenotyping has been a reality for aiding the selection of optimal crops for specific environments for decades in various horticultural industries. However, until recently, phenotyping was less accessible to tree breeders due to the size of the crop, the

Use of flying dragon trifoliate orange as dwarfing rootstock for citrus under tropical climatic conditions [PDF]
Citrus fruit trees grown under tropical climatic conditions have a high level of vigor and, consequently, late fruit-bearing and low productivity. The use of Flying Dragon trifoliate orange [Poncirus trifoliata var.
