.S. National Arboretum has an ongoing breeding program aimed at developing new cultivars of ornamental cherry with disease and pest resistance, tolerance to environmental stresses, and superior ornamental characteristics. Breeding strategies include broadening

nutrient use efficiency ( Djidonou et al., 2013 ). At first, this approach was used primarily as an effective tool to manage various soil-borne diseases and to overcome environmental stresses associated with the intensive, continuous cropping in solanaceous

sold at local markets ( Gu et al., 2017 ). The early success of the industry in this region is due, in part, to the use of MB as a soil fumigant to control soil-borne pests. Although MB is no longer available, most growers still use chemical soil

terms of productivity, phenology, or pest management. The American elderberry is a large, vigorous, multistemmed shrub that produces fruit on the current season's growth as well as older wood. For simplicity, we use the terms “primary” and “secondary” to
