Influence of burning methods on the growth development and qualitative yield of apricot seedlings

Abstract

This article presents the results of an experiment to determine the optimal height to increase the level of resistance of apricot seedlings with a bud grafting method. In the experiment, a method was tested for grafting the buds of fruitful local varieties of grafted apricot to modern low-growing scions of different heights. In this case, apricot seedlings of the varieties Yubileiny Navoi, Subkhany, Isfarak and Ak Kandak were grafted onto Mirobalan rootstocks. According to observations, the number of dead shoots before the first observation period when grafting the best grafting height of shoots onto scions Morabolan and Morabolan 29C, prop-agated by vegetative means, is 5 cm and is 9-10%, respectively. The largest number of dead buds was observed in the apricot variety Ak Kandak (up to 13%) in this variant of the experiment.
