Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect 19 clonal rootstocks on vegetative growth and foliar nutrient contents 'BRS Kampai' Rubimel' peach (Prunus persica) trees. In period 2014 2018, two field trials were carried out in municipalities Jarinu Jundiaí, state São Paulo, Brazil. BRS Kampai Rubimel cultivars, budded rootstocks, besides their own-rooted scions, evaluated resp...

The labor-efficient automation of grafting has been recognized as a key factor in the wider adoption grafting. In growing cucurbits, root pruned one-cotyledon method is most commonly used with machines. cutting angle, which affects matching rootstock and scion, to survival graft seedling. production cucurbit seedlings, parameters are established based on experience, leading low success. To dete...

Background and Aims Rootstock type can lead to differences in scion canopy growth fruit yield by conferring specific traits the scion. Conferred may interact alter relationship between vine water use yield, providing a mechanism whereby rootstocks could be used improve efficiency of production. This study aimed determine whether rootstock conferred vigour crop index (yield per unit transpired) ...

Ink disease caused by the root-rot pathogen P. cinnamomi (Pc) threatens European sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) orchards, and growers increasingly graft susceptible C. traditional varieties on Pc-resistant hybrid commercial rootstocks. The influence of scion, rootstock, grafting per se vegetative budburst, growth, susceptibility to Pc defence-related hormone profile Castanea spp. are un...

In vitro micropropagation is already a current multiplication tool for walnut self-rooted cultivars and rootstocks, but grafting still performed in the field or greenhouses, mainly using seedlings as rootstocks. The present work describes new approach to obtain clonal walnut-grafted plants, involving shoot production of ‘Paradox’ (Juglans hindsi × Juglans regia) cl. ’Vlach’, be used rootstock, ...
