- Plant roots
Aramon (grape)
Aramon or Aramon noir is a variety of red wine grape grown primarily in Languedoc-Roussillon in southern France.
See Rootstock and Aramon (grape)
California
California is a state in the Western United States, lying on the American Pacific Coast.
Citrus rootstock
Citrus rootstock are plants used as rootstock for citrus plants. Rootstock and citrus rootstock are plant roots.
See Rootstock and Citrus rootstock
Cultivar
A cultivar is a kind of cultivated plant that people have selected for desired traits and which retains those traits when propagated.
David R. Bennion
David Ralph Bennion (1929–1988) was a leading California winemaker who was the founder and winemaker at Ridge Vineyards in California from 1959 to 1969.
See Rootstock and David R. Bennion
Disease
A disease is a particular abnormal condition that adversely affects the structure or function of all or part of an organism and is not immediately due to any external injury.
Drought
A drought is a period of drier-than-normal conditions.
Fruit
In botany, a fruit is the seed-bearing structure in flowering plants that is formed from the ovary after flowering (see Fruit anatomy).
Fruit tree propagation
Fruit tree propagation is usually carried out vegetatively (non-sexually) by grafting or budding a desired variety onto a suitable rootstock. Rootstock and Fruit tree propagation are plant reproduction.
See Rootstock and Fruit tree propagation
Genetic testing
Genetic testing, also known as DNA testing, is used to identify changes in DNA sequence or chromosome structure.
See Rootstock and Genetic testing
Grafting
Grafting or graftage is a horticultural technique whereby tissues of plants are joined so as to continue their growth together. Rootstock and Grafting are plant reproduction.
Grape
A grape is a fruit, botanically a berry, of the deciduous woody vines of the flowering plant genus Vitis.
Malling series
The Malling series is a group of rootstocks for grafting apple trees.
See Rootstock and Malling series
Nematode
The nematodes (or; Νηματώδη; Nematoda), roundworms or eelworms constitute the phylum Nematoda.
Orchard
An orchard is an intentional plantation of trees or shrubs that is maintained for food production. Rootstock and orchard are horticulture.
Pathogen
In biology, a pathogen (πάθος, "suffering", "passion" and -γενής, "producer of"), in the oldest and broadest sense, is any organism or agent that can produce disease.
Pear
Pears are fruits produced and consumed around the world, growing on a tree and harvested in late summer into mid-autumn.
PH
In chemistry, pH, also referred to as acidity or basicity, historically denotes "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen").
See Rootstock and PH
Phylloxera
Grape phylloxera is an insect pest of grapevines worldwide, originally native to eastern North America.
Plant propagation
Plant propagation is the process by which new plants grow from various sources, including seeds, cuttings, and other plant parts. Rootstock and plant propagation are plant reproduction.
See Rootstock and Plant propagation
Propagation of grapevines
The propagation of grapevines is an important consideration in commercial viticulture and winemaking. Rootstock and propagation of grapevines are plant reproduction.
See Rootstock and Propagation of grapevines
Quince
The quince (Cydonia oblonga) is the sole member of the genus Cydonia in the Malinae subtribe (which also contains apples and pears, among other fruits) of the Rosaceae family.
Rhizome
In botany and dendrology, a rhizome is a modified subterranean plant stem that sends out roots and shoots from its nodes. Rhizomes are also called creeping rootstalks or just rootstalks. Rhizomes develop from axillary buds and grow horizontally. The rhizome also retains the ability to allow new shoots to grow upwards. Rootstock and rhizome are plant reproduction.
Ridge Vineyards
Ridge Vineyards is a California winery specializing in Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, and Chardonnay wines.
See Rootstock and Ridge Vineyards
Root
In vascular plants, the roots are the organs of a plant that are modified to provide anchorage for the plant and take in water and nutrients into the plant body, which allows plants to grow taller and faster. Rootstock and root are plant roots.
Salinity
Salinity is the saltiness or amount of salt dissolved in a body of water, called saline water (see also soil salinity).
Sand
Sand is a granular material composed of finely divided mineral particles.
Seed
In botany, a seed is a plant embryo and food reserve enclosed in a protective outer covering called a seed coat (testa). Rootstock and seed are plant reproduction.
Soil
Soil, also commonly referred to as earth or dirt, is a mixture of organic matter, minerals, gases, liquids, and organisms that together support the life of plants and soil organisms. Rootstock and soil are horticulture.
Species
A species (species) is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction.
The SOMM Journal
The SOMM Journal is a subscription-based magazine publication, founded in 2008 for sommeliers and others in the restaurant and wine business.
See Rootstock and The SOMM Journal
Viticulture
Viticulture (vitis cultura, "vine-growing"), viniculture (vinis cultura, "wine-growing"), or winegrowing is the cultivation and harvesting of grapes. Rootstock and Viticulture are horticulture.
Vitis rupestris
Vitis rupestris is a species of grape native to the United States that is known by many common names including July, Coon, sand, sugar, beach, bush, currant, ingar, rock, and mountain grape.
See Rootstock and Vitis rupestris
Vitis vinifera
Vitis vinifera, the common grape vine, is a species of flowering plant, native to the Mediterranean region, Central Europe, and southwestern Asia, from Morocco and Portugal north to southern Germany and east to northern Iran.
See Rootstock and Vitis vinifera
