En USA han evaluado un nuevo portainjerto de la serie Gissen, denominado Gisela 12, este ha presentado ventajas interesantes en precocidad, vigor y especialmente un mejor calibre de la fruta. El vigor de G.12 depende de la variedad que se combina, se ha visto en Oregn que combinado con Bing su vigor es intermedio entre G.5 y G.6. Pero al usarse G.12 con Regina, presenta vigor un 10% superior a G.6 y es preferido por los productores ya que es mas fcil manejar el vigor y calibre de la fruta. Ambos, G.6 y G.12 son muy productivos y precoces en entrar en produccin. G.12 se adapta muy bien a diferentes tipos de suelos y aparentemente se adapta bien a suelos hmedos al igual que G.6. Los rboles en G.12 presentan ramas abiertas y con buenos ngulos.
Terence Robinson de la Universidad de Cornell en NY, ha evaluado por 8 aos el portainjerto Gisela 12 con las variedades Lapins y Regina, comparando su efecto sobre: Sobrevivencia de los rboles Tamao de rbol Calibre de la fruta Productividad Eficiencia productiva Rentabilidad Todos estos factores se comparan con los portainjertos Gisela 5, 6 y Mazzard despus de 8 aos de informacin acumulada.

Gisela 12 (P. cerasus x P. canescens) Tree vigor and size on Gisela 12 is variable depending upon cultivar combination. Several years of testing in The Dalles, Oregon, and Prosser, Washington, indicated that when combined with Bing, Gisela 12 produced a tree intermediate in size to Gisela 5 and 6. However, grower experience with Regina indicates that Gisela 12 produces a tree approximately 10 percent larger than Gisela 6. Some growers prefer the Regina/Gisela 12 combination, as they find it easier to maintain shoot growth and, ultimately, fruit size. It is both precocious and productive, producing early heavy crops, with full production possible by the fifth leaf. Good fruit size and quality is possible with proper pruning. Gisela 12 is adapted to a wide range of soils, and tree structure is open and spreading and new branches form readily. Source: Lynn Long, Oregon State University
Lapins en Gisela 12: Presenta vigor similar a Gisela 6 o un 10% superior. Buen ngulo y buen calibre Puede ser auto soportante, no presenta diferencia de dimetro entre el tronco y la variedad.
