Abstract
The new and distinct cultivar of cherry rootstock, which has been given the designation GI 148/9 produces a tree which is generally spreading and which upon grafting produces a dwarf tree.
Description
The present invention relates generally to cherry trees and more specifically to a new and distinct variety of cherry hybrid tree which is particularly useful as a rootstock.
The use of cherry hybrid trees as rootstock is known in the art of producing cherry trees. One such variety is F12/1, a vegetatively propagated P. avium-selection. Cherry rootstock varieties GI 148/1 and 148/8 are described in U.S. Plant Pat. Nos. 8,852 and 8,954. The use of cherry hybrid varieties as rootstock produces a dwarf tree that comes into earlier and heavier bearing without sacrificing fruit size.
The new and distinct cultivar of cherry rootstock, which has been given the designation GI 148/9 produces a tree which is generally spreading and which upon grafting produces a dwarf tree.
FIG. 1 illustrates a branch and dormant lateral buds, bark and lenticels of GI 148/9.
FIG. 2 is a whole tree view of 148/9.
The new and distinct variety of cherry hybrid tree of the present invention was bred by the inventors as a cross of Prunus cerasus cv. "Schattenmorelle" with Prunus canescens in Giessen, Germany. It has been successfully asexually propagated by softwood cuttings at the University of Giessen in Giessen, Germany, and has been observed to remain true to the description set forth herein.
GI 148/9 as used as a rootstock for sweet cherry trees induces dwarfing to a significant degree. In comparison with rootstock F12/1, GI 148/9 produces 29 percent of growth, as measured as the fresh weight of the upper tree parts of cv. "Hedelfinger" after 12 years in orchards near Giessen, Germany. Precocity, high production of fruit and yield efficiency, good fruit size and no or very few suckers were induced. GI 148/9 as a rootstock confers earlier and heavier bearing to the scion as compared to F12/1 clonal cherry rootstock. In one trial, it induced a yield in the variety "Hedelfinger" in the 5th leaf of 5.8 kg/tree (cf. F12/1:0.2 kg/tree) and in the 7th leaf of 13.8 kg/tree (cf. F12/1:5.7 kg/tree). As a mean of seven years, 100-fruit-weight of "Hedelfinger" grafted on 148/9 was 763 grams, while 100-fruit-weight of "Hedelfinger" grafted on F12/1 was 735 grams.
GI 148/9 itself is of medium vigor, has a spreading habit and long, thin partly drooping branches. After eight growing seasons near Giessen, Germany, GI 148/9 demonstrated a height of 3.40 meters and a width of 3.85 meters. It is tolerant to the virus PDV, sensitive to the virus PNRV and medium tolerant to Pfeffinger Disease Its tolerance towards water-logging and its frost-hardiness is medium.
The following varieties of sweet and sour cherries have been successfully grafted onto GI 148/9: Abels Spaete, Buttners Rote Knorpel, Grosse Schwarze Knorpel, Van, Gold, Hedelfinger, Hedelfinger Hilltop, Ulster, Valeska, Bing, Early Burlat, Emperor Francis, Konigskirsche, Meckenheimer, Oktavia, Regina, Schneiders Spate Knorpel, Stella, Windsor, Montmorency. No graft incompatibility is presently known.
Ploidy of 148/9 is probably triploid (2n=3×). The ploidy status of the parents has been investigated by isoenzyme analysis and is tetraploid (2n=4×) for the mother plant=Prunus cerasus, "Schattenmorelle", and diploid (2n=2×) for the father plant, Prunus canescens.
