Abstract
A new and distinct Prunus hybrid plant used as a rootstock for cherries that induces precocity and flat branching of the grafted plant.
Description
Botanical classification: Prunus hybrid.
Varietal denomination: ‘Gi31817’.
The present invention comprises a new and distinct cultivar of Prunus hybrid used as a rootstock known by the varietal name ‘Gi31817’. The new variety was discovered in Giessen, Germany in 1970. The new variety is the result of a planned breeding program between an unnamed Prunus canescens variety (female parent) and a mixture of pollen as the male parentage from several unnamed and presumably unpatented varieties of Prunus avium. The new variety has larger leaves, less leaf pubescence, stronger vigor, and induces stronger vigor of a grafted tree than its female parent. When compared to the varieties making up its male parentage, the new variety does not grow as upright and also induces less growth and higher precocity of a grafted tree. The purpose of the breeding program was to produce a series of size-controlling, productive, and precocious rootstocks for sweet cherries. The new variety has been trial and field tested and has been found to retain its distinctive characteristics and remain true to type through successive propagations.
The new variety is similar to prunus rootstock ‘GI 148/2’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,622) in its rootstock induction of precosity, rootstock induction of flat branching, and the absence of root suckers. The leaves of the new variety have a different appearance than those of ‘GI 148/2’. Further, the vigor of a grafted tree on the new variety is much greater than on ‘GI 148/2’.
The accompanying photographic drawings illustrate the new cultivar taken during the first vegetation period after in vitro propagation at a nursery in Oberdorlar, Germany, with the color being as nearly true as is possible with color illustrations of this type:
The following detailed description sets forth the characteristics of the new cultivar. The data which defines these characteristics were collected by asexual reproduction carried by green cuttings under mist and in vitro conditions. The first asexual reproduction occurred in approximately 1975 in Giessen, Germany. The color readings were taken in natural daylight. Color references are primarily to The 2001 R.H.S. Colour Chart of The Royal Horticultural Society of London. Except where stated otherwise, the data collected for the description herein was taken on five-year old plants grown in an orchard under standard growing conditions in Witzenhausen-Wendershausen, Germany.
- Use: As a rootstock for sweet, sour, and ornamental cherries.
- Fragrance: None observed.
- Growth type: Semi-upright to upright.
- Height: 360 cm five years after planting (in Giessen, German).

- Viruses.—Tolerant to ilarviruses PDV (prune dwarf virus) and PNRSV (prunus necrotic ringspot virus).
-
- Trunk circumference: 88 mm two years after planting (in Giessen, Germany).
- Trunk bark color: 175B.
- Branches:
-
- Internode length.—Medium.
- Diameter.—Medium.
- Texture.—Very weak pubescence.
- Color.—175B.
-
- Leaves:
-
- Length.—Medium; 9 cm on long shoots, and 6 cm on spur shoots.
- Width.—Medium; 4 cm on long shoots, and 3 cm on spur shoots.

- Petiole texture.—Weak pubescence present.
- Stipule length.—Intermediate.
-
- Flowers:
-
- Pedicel length.—1.5 cm.
- Peduncle length.—3.5 cm.
- Peduncle texture.—Glabrous.
- Bud color.—56D.
- Bloom timing.—Similar to most sweet cherry cultivars, like ‘Hedelfinger’ (not patented).
- Shape.—Round.
- Petals.—Number: Five. Length: 0.8 cm. Width: 0.8 cm. Shape: Round. Color (fully opened): White on both surfaces.
- Sepals.—Number: Five. Length: 0.4 cm. Diameter: 0.4 cm. Color: 144A.
- Pistil number.—One.
-
- Fruit shape: Elliptic.
- Tree winter hardiness: Good; USDA Hardiness Zone of 6 to 7 (possibly 5b to 8a).
- Performance as a grafted rootstock:
-
- Root sprouts.—No suckers observed.
- Anchorage.—Good.
- Compatibility.—Good.
- Vigor.—Reduces size of tree compared to Prunus avium rootstock, much more vigorous than ‘GI 148/2’, more vigorous than ‘GI 148/1’.
