ОСОБЕННОСТИ ПЛОДОНОШЕНИЯ ЯБЛОНИ В СТЛАНЦЕВОЙ КУЛЬТУРЕ В УСЛОВИЯХ ЮЖНОГО ПРЕДБАЙКАЛЬЯ

The purpose of this work was to evaluate the peculiarities of fruiting apple varieties cultivated under the conditions of the Southern Baikal region in creeping culture. The object of the study was the large-fruited apple trees of various breeding stations and national selection. Planting material for the collection site was grown in equal agrotechnical and climatic conditions. Two-year old seedlings were used as stocks (for standard grafting in low shtamb). The harvest was taken into account (by weight) from each tree of the studied variety after three years of European and American varieties of apple trees into fruiting introduction. Conducted a preliminary quantitative accounting of the crop. Noted the minimum and maximum productivity from a tree of each grade. It is shown that only the maximum snow cover contributed to a full-fledged laying of fruit formations. Only the fruits of summer apple trees corresponded to the pomological description of the variety. Some varieties of the autumn and especially winter ripening period lost the brightness of the color and the size of the fruit, while maintaining high taste. Many varieties had a shorter storage period. The reason for this can be considered the influence of the peculiarities of the Siberian summer, namely, the insufficient length of the frost-free period and the sum of positive temperatures that the stanza culture is not able to fully overcome.
