For example, dwarf or semi-dwarf apple varieties were selected from different rootstocks to facilitate harvesting (Fazio and Mazzola 2004; Fazio et al. 2014; Foster et al. 2015). Additionally, the maximization of biomass yield is a primary breeding goal for dedicated bioenergy crops (Fernandez ...
The implementation of dwarf cultivation techniques has enabled the growth of smaller and more manageable trees, which not only offer cost-effectiveness but also exhibit desirable traits such as early fruiting, high yields, and consistent production. Consequently, dwarf cultivation has emerged as a ...
