...compatibility in term of scion/root stock ratio. Maximum plant height attained in T0(Rough lemon) with max. canopy volume. All the exotic root stocks are compatible with Feutrell’s early. Objectively maximum fruit weight, fruit size, juice percentage and yield obtained in T1 Troyer citrange and T2 Cox mandarin as compared to local root stock rough lemon. Results depict that exotic citrus root stock Troyer citrange and Cox mandarin performed well with Feu...

... traits, we examined the scion-root interaction of four scion cultivars viz. Delhi White, Suffen, Karela and Mahmud Wali during March-April 2013-14. After the establishment of plant, data were recorded for yield and fruit quality traits during three consecutive years (2016-19). Results showed that Dehli White grafted plants produced maximum yield kg/plant (60.33, 71.43, 78.00 ) followed by Mehmud Wali, Karela and Suffen

...s (Aswan F1 and Nems) as scions, and their accessions to Meloidogyne incognita was detected. Nematode penetration, development, and potential reproduction were estimated. The rootstocks (6001 F1, Ohbkatosa F1, and RG F1) were considered highly resistant and BS F1 resistant. Scions (Aswan F1, and Nems) were moderately susceptible. Grafted watermelon hybrids varied in their reaction to nematode infection. Rootstock, 6001 F1 re...

Protecting cucumber from Meloidogyne incognita using graft onto resistant cucurbit rootstocks and antagonistic marigold as an alternative to nematicide

...planted as

a scion. Results indicate that cucumber plants grafted onto Ercola hybrid 6001, C. maxima x C. moshata (Ercola

6001) and Bh had highly significant less root galling, number of females and egg-masses than non-grafted and

infested one. The reduction in number of galls ranged between Rugby 10G (47%) grafted onto Bh (98.3%) and

Rugby 10G (30.2%) grafted onto Ercola 6001 (84.5%), respectively in two seasons...

Double Infections with Cucumber Mosaic Virus and Plum Pox Virus (SHARKA) in Apricot Trees

Ahmed, Amal A. and Fath-Allah, Mervat M.

...tion of diseased apricot scion onto healthy one showed the same symptoms as those seen in naturally infected trees in the stock shoots. Similar symptoms were caused by slashing inoculation with surgical knife onto the stem of young healthy apricot seedling with mixed inoculum of both viruses of CMV and PPV. CMV was biologically purified from single local lesions which formed on cucumber cotyledon and/or Chenopodium quinoa. Identification of this virus was base...
