Summary Comments
Slightly dwarfing rootstock from the California breeding program that is compatible with peach and nectarine with no suckering. Trees have been productive with good fruit size. Nematode tests (Nematode Table) show root-knot and ring suseptibilty, but better resistance to lesion nematode than Nemaguard. Performed poorly in bacterial canker field site (Bacterial Canker Report 2006).

Summary Comments
Extensive suckering is a problem. Otherwise it performed OK in the 1984 NC-140 rootstock trial, although fruit size was small.

Summary Comments
A vigorous rootstock compatible with peach and nectarine that is one of the most resistant rootstocks to bacterial canker (Bacterial Canker Report 2006), even though it is not completely resistant to ring nematode. It is resistant to root-knot and partially resistant to lesion nematode (Nematode Table), similar to Nemaguard.
