Although the P-1147 is a rootstock that is used practically nothing in today’s viticulture, we describe its most important characteristics.

1- Usual name of the rootstock 

1447 P


2- Breeder

Federico Paulsen


3- Year of obtaining

1896

4- Genetic origin

This comes from the cross between the grape species of Vitis berlandieri and Vitis rupestris cv. Martin.


5- Resistance to soil parasites

The 1447 P offers a high degree of tolerance to the phylloxera , the radical enemy of the vine.

The same occurs with the nematodes Meloidogyne incognita and Meloidogyne arenaria, whose resistance to these is very good.


6- Adaptation to the environment

The 1447 P rootstock is characterized by a medium to good adaptation to calcareous-type soils.

It is resistant up to 17% of active limestone and to drought.


7- Interaction with the variety and production objectives

The vigor transmitted by the 1447 P rootstock is important, which allows obtaining very good yields.

The speed of rootstock development is a bit slow, compared to other rootstocks in the world of viticulture.

This rootstock pattern does not have clones in viticulture.

My name is Dr. Sofia Seccombe, and in this small section, I want to tell you who I am and why I started this project. I don't want to bore you, but I consider that it is an important part of godlywine.
