Implementation of selection trials and data collection : Choice of clones and rootstock for the international clone trial

The objective of the International Clone Trial is to compare a common set of about 20 clones in ten different countries. This will permit us to verify the stability of selection traits (yield, resistance and quality) in different environments. These clones will be compared to 20 local clones, either in the same trial or in a second trial, by using common control clones. The proposed method of multiplication of the clones is by hypocotyledonary budding onto a rootstock variety. The choice of the clones and type of rootstock is described here.
