Abstract

Abstract Stems of 3 peach, 3 apple, and 11 apple rootstock cultivars were compared to ‘Golden Delicious’ apple stems for differences in susceptibility to attack by pine voles, (Microtus pinetorum LeConte) in cage-trials. ‘Ambergem’, ‘Glohaven’ and ‘Elberta’ peach and ‘Halford’ peach seedling stems were significantly less damaged than ‘Golden Delicious’ apple. No differences in susceptibility were detected among the apple scion and rootstock cultivars. In an interplanted peach and apple orchard apple trees were more severly damaged by voles than peach trees.
