Description
Summary:The objective of this research was to evaluate the vigour, flowering time, yield and quality of peach fruits from the cultivars 'Chimarrita' and 'Maciel' grafted on eight rootstocks. The experiment was carried out at the Faculdade de Agronomia Eliseu Maciel (Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil), during the 2008 and 2009 years. The obtained results showed that the 'Maciel' and 'Chimarrita' cultivars grafted on Umezeiro are less vigorous when compared to that grafted on other rootstocks, and showed signals of incompatibility. The flowering of the 'Chimarrita' and 'Maciel' peach cultivars is influenced by the rootstocks that can retard or anticipate the beginning and the full flowering in up to five days; the '.Maciel' cultivar grafted on Tsukuba 1 is the most productive and, for 'Chimarrita' the production is greater when grafted on Aldrighi and Capdeboscq. The rootstock Umezeiro provides fruit with higher SS/TA for 'Chimarrita' and '.Maciel' peach cultivars have a higher content of soluble solids.
