Title: Some quantitative and qualitative traits of three apple cultivars on the MM106 rootstock.
Abstract: This research was conducted to investigate the quantitative and qualitative parameters of three apple cultivars Delbarestival, Red Monty and Fuji on the MM106 rootstock. Fruit and tree traits such as fruit set percentage, tree height, trunk diameter, leaf area, fruit weight, pH levels, sugar content and titrating acidity levels were measured. Results showed a significant difference for blossoming rate, fruit set percentage, flower and fruit drop, annual shooting length and diameter, tree height, trunk diameter, leaf area, fruit weight, fruit length/diameter ratio, pH, sugar content and titratable acidity percentage but no significant difference was found at total fruit soluble solid contents. Correlation analysis indicated that high positive correlation between the most of the vegetative parameters and some quantitative and qualitative parameters of the fruit.
