Role of Grafting in yield increase of vegetables under flooding, drought, and salinity condition

This blog is very informative for Agriculture and botany students. It is about Horticulture Articles, Jobs, admission and organic farming.


Role of Grafting in yield increase of vegetables


Environmental stress

because a changing global climate is the primary reason for crop loss or failure. Among the various environmental stressors, extreme temperatures, drought and flooding (due to erratic rainfall), and salinity are the major limiting factors for the sustainable production of agricultural and horticultural crops.

Vegetable grafting

 a plant surgical technique that is eco-friendly, rapid, and efficient, is currently the best alternative approach to climate change-resilient plant production that addresses these abiotic stressors.

There are following examples of top-performing rootstock and scion combinations in vegetable crops under different environmental stresses.
