Plagas - Xylella fastidiosa - Olivo
ESPAÑA. No sé si se trata de un sinónimo de "runner" (estolón) o no:
"Indeed, mandatory actions to control vector populations are in place in the demarcated areas. These include (i) at the ground level, mechanical weeding in winter and/or spring, to mow down or cultivate native flora and other vegetation where spittlebug nymphs thrive before adult emergence; (ii) at the canopy level, apply pesticides to olives to kill the adults of P. spumarius that feed on ***suckers*** and on the crown of trees,"

vareta
Si se trata de olivos, además de "chupones", como dice Robert Carter, también se llaman "varetas".
Que yo sepa, los estolones solo salen de plantas herbáceas. :-)

I know this because relatives of mine have a tomato greenhouse and I've helped them remove the extraneous suckers.
En el cultivo del tomate existen unos cuidados primordiales que debemos hacer casi semanalmente para obtener una buena cosecha entre ellas vamos a ver como podemos podar y quitar los chupones a los tomates, una tarea interesante y fundamental cuando tenemos tomateras de tamaño grande o indeterminado para tener buenos tomates , ya que si las dejamos crecer sin mas, empiezan a sacar ramas y chupones de tal manera que nos resultaría imposible controlarlo.

In botany, a 'sucker' is a plant growing not from a seed but from a meristem of the root at the base or at a certain distance from a tree or shrub

It's definitely what they're called here in Mexico, though I can't vouch for Spain.

o laterals:
"A lateral is a shoot that grows in the V shape between the main stem and a leaf."

Supongo que también se llaman así en el caso de los árboles.
