Abstract
In experimental olive plantings—using three scion varieties and 12 different rootstocks—the principal rootstock effect on the scion variety was in tree vigor. However, any rootstock influence noted in a given scion-rootstock combination did not necessarily hold true for another scion variety on the same rootstock.
