Defoliation trial. Untreated trees in 1st photo and various treatments after that. Prior work has shown these treatments to result in accelerated natural senescence, complete with nutrient remobilization into the buds and increased cold tolerance.

First day back at work since….. what a fucken disaster…..

Blogger Adam's Apples loves apples so much he isn’t afraid to criticize them.  goodfruit.com/industry-appre…

Our newly published article (first look) in Phytopathology: We have evaluated 174 Malus accessions and identified novel sources of genetic resistance to two major fungal diseases of #Apples ; #PowderyMildew & #FrogeyeLeafSpot #GeneticDiversity apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/10.1094/PH…

Mooie appelstruik op (matig) sterke onderstam met breed open vaasmodel. Goede bereikbaarheid, rijke oogsten en weinig ziektes. Zou wat mij betreft prima voor extensieve biofruitproductie door kunnen! #snoeikunst #fruitbomen #snoeien #duurzaamheid

Will my fascination with #GeneticDiversity ever go away? This single picture takes me to the imagination and stories about nature, human history, & culture from east Asia, Central Asia to Caucasus, Europe to North America! #CropWildRelatives #Apples

Pollen for crosses. Collect blossom clusters @ pink. With a sharp blade slice thru the blossom about 1/3 the way up the sepal. Sieve thru a screen. Ripen until dehiscent w/warm light. When pollen is observed the anthers/pollen can be placed in a pill bottle for the field.
