A new and distinct variety of apple tree rootstockxhybrid 'G.66' is described herein. The new variety is a productive, yield efficient, semi-dwarfing rootstock that is resistant to fire blight () and crown rot (). The 'G.66' rootstock is useful in that it can be propagated clonally and used as a rootstock or root system for apple trees as well as for interstems of apple trees.

The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of apple tree named 'G.814'. 'G.814' is useful in that it can be propagated clonally and used as a rootstock or root system for apple trees as well as for interstems of apple trees. When used as a rootstock, 'G.814', is: dwarfing, induces scion precocity, is cold hardy, induces scion precocity, has a high yield efficiency, is tolerant to replant disease, and is resistant to: crown and root rot (), fire-blight (), and powdery mildew. &#x2018;G.814&#x2019; is susceptible to Apple Stem Grooving Virus (ASGV) and wooly apple aphid.

Apple tree rootstock named 'G.814'

The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of apple tree rootstock named 'G.222'. The 'G.222' apple tree rootstock is 45 to 55 percent of the size of a standard self-rooted seedling tree, induces precocity to the scion, encourages high yield efficiency, is resistant to fire blight and woolly apple aphid, is resistant to crown and root rots caused by, and is tolerant to replant disease complex.
