Abstract

Peach and nectarine cultivars, grafted on the peach-almond rootstock GF677, were evaluated for productivity, fruit quality, susceptibility to Plum pox virus (PPV), mineral absorption efficiency and trunk diameter. Generally, the cultivars Nectaross, Redhaven and Tasty Free could be suggested as the best to be cultivated in northern Greece. These cultivars bloom late in March escaping from early spring frost. In addition, they are productive with quite good fruit quality and show good compatibility with the rootstock GF677. 'Nectaross' showed low tolerance to PPV, in contrast to 'Redhaven' and Tasty Free' which were tolerant.
