| | Fruit tree propagation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Sexual reproduction occurs when male pollen from one tree fertilises the ovules (incipient seeds) of the flower of another, stimulating the development of fruit. | | | He is also conducting research into the 'coppice-ability' of own-root fruit trees, including an experimental 'Coppice Orchard' project, wherein own-root trees are planted in north-south rows; "When the canopy of the orchard closes, a north-south row will be coppiced and the land in the row used for light demanding crops while the trees regrow. | | | Some species of fruit are commonly grown on their own roots; new plants are propagated by rooting, layering, or modern tissue-culture techniques. |

| | Almond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | It is a tree of moderate size; the leaves are lanceolate, and serrated at the edges; and it flowers early in spring. | | | The tree is probably a native of southwest Asia and north Africa, but has been so extensively cultivated for so long over the warm temperate regions of the Old World that its original natural distribution is obscure. | | | The application of "Shaked" or "hasten" to the almond is similar to the use of the name "May" for the hawthorn, which usually flowers in that month in Britain. |

| | Tree Fruit Culture and Varieties in N.D. |
| | Fruit trees should be planted at least 40 to 50 feet from farm shelterbelts to prevent breakage from snowdrifts and reduce competition for soil moisture and nutrients between the two. | | | Many tree fruit varieties cannot set fruit with their own pollen, so it is necessary to select and plant two different varieties to insure proper pollination. | | | Grafting is used mainly to propagate trees and to develop trees on hardy, disease resistant roots and/or interstocks (topworking). |

| | pruning fruit trees: Information From Answers.com |
| | Unpruned trees tend to produce large crops of small, worthless fruit often damaged by pests and diseases, and much of the crop is out of reach at the top of the tree. | | | The main aim when pruning fruit trees is usually to obtain a decent crop of fruit rather than a tree with an abundance of lush yet unproductive foliage. | | | Overpruned trees on the other hand tend to produce light crops of large, flavourless fruit that does not store well. |

| | Plum |
| | When it flowers in the early spring, a plum tree will be covered in blossom, and in a good year approximately 50% of the flowers will be pollinated and become plums. | | | If the weather is too dry the plums will not develop past a certain stage, but will fall from the tree while still tiny green buds, and if it is unseasonably wet or if the plums are not harvested as soon as they are ripe, the fruit may develop a fungal condition called brown rot. | | | Brown rot is not toxic, and very small affected areas can be cut out of the fruit, but unless the rot is caught immediately the fruit will no longer be edible. |

| | Articles - Plant propagation |
| | Seeds are typically produced from sexual reproduction within a species, since genetic recombination has occurred plants grown from seed may have different characteristics to its parents. | | | Plants are produced using material from a single parent and as such there is no exchange of genetic material, therefore vegetative propagation methods almost always produces plants that are identical the parent. | | | The seed of many Australian plants and plants from southern Africa and the American west require smoke or fire to germinate. |
