The Effect of Rootstock Activity for Growth and Root System Soaking in Trichoderma atroviride on the Graft Success and Continued Growth of Beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) Plants

Two independent experiments were conducted on the effect of various factors, such as cultivars, growth activity rootstock and its treatment, with Trichoderma atroviride graft success annual beech plants. The first experiment concerned propagation five cultivars rootstocks that are active (with activity), grown before treatment in multi-cell plant trays (plastic seedling trays) or bare-root dormancy period. highest rate was observed for dormant (without activity) rootstocks. However, best parameters during year cultivation when grafting obtained from trays, while worst results dormant, individual varied significantly terms continued growth. second soaking root system success, parameters, intensity some physiological processes simultaneous use both above-mentioned treatments resulted most intensive accelerated plants tested. Inoculation did not affect success. On other hand, at time increased treatment. similarly differentiated two
