“…The highest fruit weight induced by Miral 3278 AD is a desirable marketable trait since thinning is not usually practised in plum production. Mass et al (2014) reported that fruit weight is an important quality characteristic in plums, and accordingly high production efficiencies of rootstocks should not be accompanied by decreased fruit weights. None rootstock will succeed in the stone fruit industries without promoting superior horticultural performance of the scion, with premium quality fruit.…”

“…Thus, like many perennial shrubs its distribution could be assumed to be determined by their capacity to survive cold extremes in the north or at high altitudes, and their ability to compete with drought adapted species from the south or of low altitudes like other plants. It is cultivated as a landscaping plant but could also be utilized for its fruits and as dwarfing rootstock for plum [12,13].…”

Prunus spinosa species is distributed across wide range of geographical areas which are subject to climatic, edaphic factors and long-term divergent selection. This could lead to local adaptation hence ecotypes in terms of morphological, physiologically and or biochemical inclination to their local environment. To investigate whether the species (Prunus spinosa) has been influenced by their local environmental conditions and whether populations (ecotypes) are adapted to local conditions, cuttings from different demarcated areas of origin in Germany and Italy were sourced and cultivated optimally in common container area. Growth, bud sprout and bud set were evaluated in spring, summer and autumn respectively. Soluble sugars (Glucose, fructose, sucrose and starch), N, P, K, and proline concentrations were analysed in spring and autumn for three years. The findings indicated that plants grown from different locations mostly differed in N, P, K, soluble sugars and starch in spring. Nonetheless, these geographic variations were hardly observed either in summer or in autumn. On phenology, German populations did not differ at all in phenology (flushing and growth cessation) while the Italian population always sprouted earlier and ceased growth later. The results indicate that the German populations are not differentiated by climatic variations across latitude or altitude. In contrast the Italian population is differentiated from German population Brandenburg mostly by latitudinal differentiation. Nevertheless, their inherent ability to sprout earlier and late growth cessation might expose the population to frequent frost damage when transplanted to more northern latitude.

“…Therefore, they are mostly planted as rootstocks as well as used for hybridization in plant breeding studies (Milosevic, 2006). Maas et al (2014) reported that P.spinosa not only compatible rootstock for plum and prune but also for some apricot varieties as rootstock. Due to the following advantage, it is a candidate rootstock: does not give base shoots, can forward the nutrients to the grafted apricot very well, may be propagated with tissue culture and obtained through selection plant breeding (Ugur, 2017).…”

This study was conducted in 2017 in order to work on the impacts of certain auxin, cytokine and phloroglucinol concentrations on propagation and rooting possibilities of SP-2 (Prunus spinosa) in vitro culture conditions. ½ MS nutrient medium and different combinations of IBA (0.1-0.5-1.00 mg L-1), NAA (0.25 mg L-1), BA (0.5-1.00-2.00 mg L-1), Kinetin (0.5-1.00-2.00 mg L-1), Phloroglucinol (30-60-90-120 mg L-1) and MSK-0 (normal ½ MS without any hormone) were used as materials. It was observed at the end of the study that maximum shoot length per explant was at the MSK-7 combination (25.11 mm) and the highest plant multiplication was found as 6 for MSK-10 combinations per explant. In addition, the highest root length was 176.74 mm for the MSK-2 combinations while the highest root number was observed as 2 as per explant for MSK-5 combinations. As a result of this study, while control medium (MSK-0) remained below the distribution, the best rooting value was seen on the material, where MSK-2 and MSK-3 combinations was used. According to the result of this study, Phloroglucinol (PG) had a positive impact in vitro propagation of clonal rootstock candidates SP-2 (P. spinosa).
