PHOTOSYNTHETIC PRODUCTIVITY OF PEAR TREES GROWN ON DIFFERENT ROOTSTOCKS
<p>Since the pear is not a flagship crop in Polish orchards, very little advanced research is conducted to obtain knowledge about its photosynthetic productivity strategies. The research described in this paper involves measurements of the physiological state and yield of pear trees (cv. ‘Conf...
