Hormonal Interactions Underlying Rootstock-Induced Vigor Control in Horticultural Crops

Grafting has been utilized to develop horticultural crops increase plant vigor, yield potential, and tolerance various environmental stresses. employs selected rootstocks of the same species or near relatives. Moreover, dwarfing is a desirable feature for intensive cultivation efficient orchard management. However, information on regulatory mechanisms rootstock-induced vigor control remains unclear. Numerous studies comprehend physiological molecular mechanism rootstock scion which significantly improved our understanding regarding processes in apple, litchi, pear, citrus, etc. This review summarizes current knowledge impact hormonal involved dwarfing, such as auxin (IAA), cytokinins (CK), abscisic acid (ABA), gibberellic acids (GAs), brassinosteroids (BR). study will provide fascinating future effects accelerate breeding rootstocks.
