Mekjell MelandAbstract
An intensive field planting of `Edda", "Opal" and "Mallard" plum trees (Prunus domestica L.) all grafted on the semidwarf rootstock St. Julien A was established in 1993 at Ullensvang Research Centre, western Norway at 60 ° North. The objectives were to evaluate four different single row planting systems (vertical axis, free spindle, hedgerow and Y-trellis) and three planting densities ( 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 x 4 m for the Y-trellis and hedge trees and 2.0 x 4 m for the central leader trees) in a northern climate. These planting distances give a range of tree density of 1250 - 5000 trees per ha. The experiment gave a small yield in the third leaf on all canopy systems. During the first four cropping years, the yields/ha were positively correlated with tree density. Cumulative yield per hectare was highest on the Y-trellis and hedge trees with the highest density (5000 trees per ha). In the fourth leaf, the Y-trellis trees gave 15 tons per hectare. No differences in fruit size or the soluble solids content among canopies or densities were found.

The cherry cultivars "Van", "Ulster" and "Burlat" grafted on the rootstocks seedling, `Colt" and `Gisela 5" were evaluated for important fruit quality parameters at Ullensvang Research Centre during the 1998 season. The largest fruit size was found on the cultivar/rootstock combinations `Van"/seedling, `Ulster/Colt" and `Burlat/Gisela 5". Other parameters like fruit firmness, stone weight, soluble solids, titratable acids and pH of the fruit juice were registered as well.
