Abstract

Fruit trees known as deciduous species are native to the northern temperate zones that are well adapted to environmental conditions in regions of high Colombian Andean tropics, especially in the highlands boyacense where approximately 80% of the planted area. Conveyance systems (pruning) of fruit plants are management practices which apply technical criteria for productivity in temperate climates producing countries. It is known in Boyacá, except traditional open vessel driving and other forms of effects, which is why the study was to evaluate six different types of driving on the vegetative growth of two peach varieties. We measured plant height, stem diameter, length of primary branches, percentage of lignification, and canopy projection based on each form (treatment). Was observed that the different types of pruning positively influenced with respect to the absolute control in the vegetative growth of the plants and the lignification of the primary branches, with the highest incidence in the range Rubidoux. The results also showed that the more a tree height growth and lignification of primary branches was husito.
