Kadsura coccinea (Lem.) A. C. Smith and Schisandra sphenantha rehd. et wils. are different genus plants of Schisandraceae, distributed in the north south China, respectively. These species non-wood forest trees with important medicinal value. Grafting is one technical means by which migrate to other regions adapt habitats. However, current research on grafting Schisandraceae only focuses effect...

Grafting is an ancient technique that involves the physical joining of genotypically distinct shoot and root systems, in order to achieve a desirable compound plant. This practice widely used modern agriculture improve biotic abiotic stress tolerance, modify plant architecture, induce precocious flowering rejuvenate old perennial varieties, boost yield, more. Beneficial new rootstock-scion comb...

Plant interspecific periclinal chimeras are a mosaic formed by tissues from two species. They are manipulated here as an efficient plant breeding tool for cassava root yields. In this study, plants synthesized from two chimeras, designated as chimera 2 and chimera 4, were characterized morphologically and cytologically to unravel the origin of their tissue layers (L2 and L3). Root yield of the ...

Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is the causative agent of Pierce’s Disease (PD). Collectively, a team of researchers (Lindow, Dandekar, Labavitch/Powell and Gilchrist) has identified or constructed and advanced the evaluation of five (Table 1) novel genes (DNA constructs) that, when engineered into grapevines, suppress symptoms of PD by reducing the titer of Xf in the plant, reducing its systemic sprea...

Aim of study: To address diversification citrus cultivars to increase the variety and profitability orchards adapt them environmental changes.
 Area State São Paulo, a subtropical region southeastern Brazil.
 Material methods: The study evaluated phenological intervals, thermal sum, vegetative productive performance, fruit quality sweet orange ‘Rubi’ (R), ‘Lue Gin Gong’ (LGG) ‘Valenci...

In this study, different eggplant scion genotypes were grafted onto rootstock in order to assess the plant growth, development, and fruit yield of plants based on physiological morphological response mechanisms. The experiment was conducted at vegetable research field plot campus Faculty Agriculture, University Erciyes, Kayseri-Turkey. carried out determine shoot root fresh dry biomasses, heigh...

Hazelnuts are usually propagated by suckers or layering. However, other methods of propagation have been tested with variable results. Grafting is a method that has a few advantages such as fast multiplication rate, earlier fruiting and reducing sucker removal cost on specific rootstocks. Unfortunately, grafting is difficult due to slow formation of callus in hazelnuts. Here, we report the hypo...

The BBCH (Biologische Bundesanstalt, Bundessortenamt und CHemische Industrie) scale is a system that helps producers monitor phenology by employing uniform methodology across different locations. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of scion×rootstock combinations on tomato yield and accumulated degree days for each phenological stage. A randomized block design with four repetitions treatmen...
