Branching of one-year apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) and pear (Pirus communis L.) planting trees in natural conditions / Sharko L.V. // Sadivnytstvo (Horticulture). – 2014. – 68. – P. 211-220. – Refs.: 10. – in Ukrainian.

The author presents the  results of studying the biological capability of 10 apple and 8 pear varieties of natural crown formation in one-year age. The  formation of side increases in a crown is determined, above all,  by biological peculiarities of cultivars. Cvs  with high level of branching have been selected, that are reasonable  for growing in nursery farms of this region and use for the establishment of intense orchards.
