Morphological properties of one-year old shoots were studied in 15 peach and 10 nectarine cultivars during a two-year period. The following properties were studied: length and diameter of shoots, internode length, number of flowers and vegetative buds and their ratio. The properties of sylleptic shoots on one-year old shoots were also studied. For all investigated properties statistically significant differences between the cultivars were found. Cultivars with higher flower bud density (higher number of flower buds per node or per 1 m length) such as: Suncrest, Pegaso and Carolina Belle require severe pruning to obtain good fruit quality. On the other hand, cultivars with less flower bud density e.g. Summerset, Sunprince, and Goldcrest should be pruned slightly to obtain high yield. In the regions with high risk of freeze damage cultivars with higher flower bud density should be grown.
