It was found that the drying quality of small-diameter Birch lumbers could be improved with intermittent-heating, but the intermittent time should be prolonged. Prolonging intermittent time helped to weaken or even avoid wood distortion and drying checks. It wash＇ t helpful in avoiding crook. The drying quality of small-diameter Birch lumbers with all kinds of drying methods reached the second class of the Chinese National Standard. The drying quality reached the first class of the Chinese National Standard with the intermittent-heating in the area of visual wood defects.展开更多

The somaclonal showed reduced vegetative vigour without any variation of the natural tree＇s architecture. The rootstock ＇Gisela 6＇ caused change in genotype habitus inducing a spreading shape, while ＇Colt＇ increased trunk diameter and height. Fruit quality and size were not affected by genotype nor rootstock. ＇Gisela 6＇, from these preliminary data, had proved the most suitable rootstock for both genotypes since it reduced the tree size and vigor and induced early bearing and the production of a greater number of fruiting spurs.展开更多
