Two compact mutants from ‘Frantoio’ and ‘Leccino’, and one dwarf from ‘Leccino’ obtained from gamma irradiated plantlets were studied. Several positive morphological and physiological differences were recorded when compared to the mother plants. The results indicated the possibility of using them as new cultivars or as rootstocks.
