Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingShould mango rootstock trials compare equal-age trees or equal-size trees?
Choose according to the question and record both age and starting size. Equal-age plants show production differences that include nursery growth, while size matching can help compare later behavior among similarly developed plants. Size selection may remove part of a treatment's natural variation. Describe the selection rule so readers understand which population the results represent.
