Evaluating rootzone stresses and the role of the root system on rose crop productivity and fertilizer-water use efficiency: Setting-up the experiment

Subject:

Evaluating rootzone stresses and the role of the root system on

Abstract:

The proposed studies intend to characterize the productivity, quality and physiological performance of rose plants growing on their own roots versus grafted on a rootstock (‘Natal Briar’) when growing under challenging and/or heterogeneous rootzone stresses, namely alkalinity (varying pH conditions), salinity, high boron and high ammonium-N ratios. The ultimate objective of the proposed studies is to suggest management practices that might minimize the deleterious effects of these stresses, maintaining their productivity-quality and perhaps even enhancing their water and fertilizer use efficiency.
