The research has been done for assessment of effects of different concentrations of Indole-3-Butyric Acid (IBA) on rhizogenesis of scions of C. Phlomidis in 2010.  The research has been done on Randomized Complete-blocks for five replications and three treatments with zero, 2000ppm and 3000pmm concentration. Different characters such as number of root of each scion, length of root, length of ne...

Citrus relatives are a relevant source of valuable traits for use in citrus breeding, including resistance to diseases such as Huanglongbing (HLB). Resistant rootstocks may impact tree responses HLB. This requires graft compatibility, which has been poorly investigated within the Aurantioideae. In this study, biometric characteristics and anatomy union 86 scion/rootstock combinations were asses...

the types of scion-rootstock compound and level of salinity affect on growth characteristics and concentration of nutrition elements of almond leaves and roots. in order to evaluate the effect of salinity stress on vegetative traits and concentration of nutrition elements of leaves and roots almond genotypes, a experiment was carried out with two factors; cultivar in four levels including ‘shah...

Microplot experiments were conducted over two years (four growing seasons) to evaluate Meloidogyne incognita resistance in rootstocks used for grafted tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), muskmelon (Cucumis melo), and watermelon (Citrullus lanatus). Three tomato rootstocks; 'TX301', 'Multifort', and 'Aloha', were tested in addition to the nongrafted scion, 'Florida-47'. Two muskmelon rootstocks; Cucu...

The present work investigates the interactions between soil content, rootstock, and scion by focusing on the effects of roostocks and nitrogen supply on grape berry content. Scions of Cabernet Sauvignon (CS) and Pinot Noir (PN) varieties were grafted either on Riparia Gloire de Montpellier (RGM) or 110 Richter (110R) rootstock. The 4 rooststock/scion combinations were fertilized with 3 differen...

Color analysis of spalted wood surfaces requires a non-subjective, repeatable method for determining percent of pigmentation on the wood surface. Previously published methods used human visual perception with a square grid overlay to determine the percent of surface pigmentation. Our new method uses Scion Image, a graphical software program used for grayscale and color analysis, to separate fun...

Rootstock is widely used for the cultivation of citrus fruits because it brings resistance or tolerance to diseases environmental constrains and modulates fruit quality. Polyploidization a widespread improvement strategy in citrus. The objective was evaluate effect rootstock ploidy level on composition essential oils. Two trials were conducted, one displaying ‘Navelina’ orange grafted three roo...

Background and Aims The use of rootstocks to enhance the performance low-yielding wine cultivars grown under hot irrigated conditions was studied. Methods Results Field grape composition low-vigour (Chasselas, Egiodola, Ehrenfelser, Gamay, Perdea, Reichensteiner Roussanne) as own roots or grafted on (1103 Paulsen, Dog Ridge, Ramsey, Schwarzmann SO4) were assessed over three seasons. Across all ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the stenting (grafted cutting) propagation of commercial pomegranate cultivars as scions on drought tolerant genotypes as rootstocks. The effect of drought stress on nine pomegranate rootstocks was analyzed. Cultivars including ‘Daneshgah 13’, ‘Daneshgah 32’ and ‘Daneshgah 8’ that were used as rootstocks showed the maximum drought tolerance among the ...

Micrografting can be used to produce healthy seedlings, assess scion-rootstock compatibility and promote precocity. The first objective of this project was to study the impacts of in vitro micropropagation of four major Iranian pistachio cultivars, namely ‘Ahmad Aghaei’, ‘Akbari’, ‘Badami Sefid’ and ‘Kalle Ghochi’ in two different medium Murashige and Skoog (MS) and Driver and Kuniyuki...
