Own rooted olive plants (Olea europaea L.) of the cvs. 'Megaritiki' (M), 'Chondrolia Chalkidikis' (C), 'Amfissis' (A), 'Kalamon', 'Koroneiki', 'Agiou Orous', and wild olives, as well as the scion x rootstock combinations CxC, MxC, MxM, AxM, CxM, AxA, and CxA were irrigated with a nutrient solution containing 10 mg boron (B)/L for two months. In all the own rooted plants and in the rootstock-scion combinations of the same cultivar stem growth rate was decreased due to high B. The lowest B concentration in leaves and roots was found in 'Kalamon' and wild olives, respectively. 'Megaritiki' had higher leaf B concentration when grafted on 'Megaritiki' or 'Chondrolia Chalkidikis' compared to own rooted plants. The same cultivar as own rooted plant had higher root B concentration than as rootstock of the other tested cultivars.
