Abstract:
The result revealed that among the grafts of different varieties of mango, treatment (A1)- Kesar recorded highest influence on the parameters like height of graft (30.03 cm), girth of stock (5.87 mm), girth of scion (5.79 mm), number of leaves per graft (11.31), fresh weight of shoots (20.52 g), dry weight of shoots (13.48 g) and survival percentage (75.00%). However, minimum days for sprouting (14.37) were recorded in Totapuri and Neelam varieties. Similarly, the maximum girth of stock (5.85 mm), girth of scion (5.67 mm), number of leaves per graft (10.23), fresh weight of shoots (19.40 g), dry weight of shoots (12.40 g) and survival percentage (77.00%) was found in treatment (B1)-5 mm girth of rootstock. While, the minimum days required for sprouting and height of graft shown non-significant differences among the girth of rootstocks. The significant interaction for above traits was observed in treatment combination of (A1B1) where, Kesar variety of mango was grafted on 5 mm girth of rootstock.
