Scion–rootstock combination influences nut yield and quality in a super high‐density almond orchard in the Mediterranean basin

Key Points

• The research aims to evaluate how different scion-rootstock combinations affect nut yield and quality in almond orchards.
• Comparison of 'Lauranne' and 'Guara' scions on R40 rootstock
• Assessment of physiological adaptation and productivity
• Analysis of nut characteristics and biochemical properties
• Both scions on R40 exhibited high yield and efficient productivity
• The nuts had favorable characteristics and biochemical properties
• Demonstrated suitability for super high-density planting systems in warm climates
