Comparison of drill- and needle-based tree injection technologies in healing of trunk injection ports on apple trees Excessive tree wounding is a common concern regarding the use of trunk injection technology for tree protection purposes in landscapes and urban greening. We investigated the rate of healing of injection ports (points) in apple trees by monitoring parameters such as port diameters, the size of bark…
