G.210 is a semidwarfing rootstock that is resistant to fire blight (Erwinia amylovora) and crown rot (Phytopthora spp.). It is a hybrid from a cross between  and is larger than Ottawa 3 but smaller than Robusta 5. It is similar in size to Malling 7 but more productive and precocious.

Resulted from a cross between Ottawa 3 and Malus floribunda and introduced by the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station, Geneva, NY.  G.16 is a dwarfing rootstock and produces a tree similar in size to M.9. It is very precocious and has productivity similar to M.9, and requires full tree support. It is highly resistant to fire blight, quite resistant to crown and root rots, but susceptible to woolly apple aphid. G.16 is hypersensitive to

Resulted from a cross between M.9 and Robusta 5 and introduced by the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station, Geneva, NY.  G.30 produces a fairly vigorous dwarf tree, similar in size to M.26. Precocity and productivity are also similar to M.26. G.30 is highly resistant to fireblight and quite resistant to crown and root rots, but susceptible to woolly apple aphid. G.30 was tested at 20 locations in the NC-140 1994 semi-dwarf rootstock trial with

G.969 is a semidwarfing rootstock that is resistant to fire blight, crown rot, and woolly apple aphid. It is classified as having growth control between M.7 and MM.106. The rootstocks produce few root suckers or burr knots. Suggested for trial for growers desiring a freestanding tree.
