Diferențierea mugurilor de rod la soiurile de nuc cu fructificare terminală și laterală

Organogenesis processes during development of walnut buds and pistillate (female) flowers structures of 16 dichogamous perspective varieties and selections (local and introduced too) were thoroughly investigated. Difference within terminal and lateral fructification of genotypes there are evaluated. The influence of some biotic and abiotic factors on the processes of morphogenesis of pistillate flower buds was established. Investigations have provided valuable information regarding selection of the appropriate parent varieties for breeding programs, as well as regarding optimization of nut production in the industrial orchards.
