Dwarfing and Freeze Hardiness Potential of Trifoliate Orange Rootstocks by James J. Ferguson, Jose Chaparro

“… While Flying Dragon has shown some promise as a freeze hardy and dwarfing rootstock, questions often arise about its rootstock genetics, rootstock/scion interactions, and cultural practices that can affect tree size. Accordingly, the purpose of this fact sheet is to discuss these issues as they relate to trifoliate orange rootstocks, especially Flying Dragon. …”

Convergence of numerical solution of stochastic differential equation for the self-thinning process by Petras Rupšys

“… For theoretical and practical analysis of the self-thinning process we use stochastic differential equation, which take the form: dN (t) = N (t) (α - β ln N (t))dt + μN (t)dW (t), N(t0) = N0, t0 ≤ t ≤ T, where N – tree per hectare (stem/ha), t – stand age, W(t) – scalar standard Brownian motion, N0 – not random, α, β and μ are parameters – real constants. …”
