EVALUATION OF ROOTSTOCK AND SCION IN BRINJAL (Solanum melongena L.) FOR GROWTH, YIELD AND FRUIT QUALITY

T. H. Rathod

Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

Grafting increases yield since plants have strong root system and increased photosynthesis. It was believed that grafting is an effective horticultural approach to improve fruit yield and quality under adequate growth conditions. The positive effect of the rootstock on fruit yield and quality may be dependent on both the shoot and root genotypes making it a difficult task to select the optimum rootstocks. So considering the advantages of grafted plants, study was conducted on “Evaluation of rootstock and scion in brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) for growth, yield and fruit quality”.
