OverviewAI-generated summary
R. C. Rom's research has focused on the study of rootstocks for fruit crops, including apples and peaches. Their work has investigated factors influencing the performance, survival, growth, and yield of these trees. Specific areas of study include the impact of rootstocks on fruit quality and the phenomenon of burr-knot formation on clonal apple rootstocks. Rom has also explored physiological aspects, such as the role of catalase in the dormancy of peach flower buds. Their publications span from the early 1970s to the early 2000s, contributing to the understanding of horticultural practices and plant physiology in fruit crop cultivation. Rom's scholarship metrics include a total of 61 publications and 591 citations, with an h-index of 9.
