Morgas, H. | Mika, A. (Research Institute of Pomology and Floriculture, Skierniewice (Poland))
Harnas peach trees grafted on Rakoniewicka seedlings (Prunus persica) were trained as spindle (at densities 1142 and 1904 trees/ha), pillar an V-system (1904 and 2857 trees/ha) and as Y-system (2857 trees/ha). Tree growth was affected by the growing season, training system and planting density. Trees with a single leader (spindle and pillar) were more productive than those V- and Y-shapped. Training system significantly influenced yield per tree. Yield per hectare was positively related to planting system, except of Y-system. The greater cropping ability of the highest planting density had a negative influence on average fruit weight. The largest fruit was obtained on the trees trained as spindle and V-shape at 1142 and 1904 trees/ha, respectively
