ThesisItem Open Access Effect of different time and methods of budding on bud take success of Nectarine on Peach (Prunus persica L.) seedling rootstocks(College of Horticulture, Bharsar Campus, V.C.S.G. Uttarakhand University of Horticulture and Forestry, 2016-10) Awasthi, Manuj; Nautiyal, B.P. (Dr.); Manju (Dr.) (Co-advisor)The present investigation entitled “Effect of different time and methods of budding on the bud take success of Nectarine on Peach (Prunus persica L.) seedling rootstocks” was conducted at Fruit Nursery, department of Fruit science. VCSG Uttarakhand University of Horticulture and Forestry, Bharsar, Pauri Garhwal, Uttarakhand, India. The combinations of different budding time i.e. 20th August, 5th September and 20th September with three different methods i.e. shield, chip and patch budding were tried to investigate their effects on the bud take success of Nectarine on Peach seedling rootstocks. In this study peach seedling were used as rootstock in the field conditions. The Nectarine cv. Red June was used for bud take success. Days taken to bud sprouting, sprout length (cm), sprout diameter (cm), number of branch, number of leaves, leaf area (cm2), percent dead budded plants without sprouting, percent dead budded plants after sprouting, survival percentage and percent total saleable plants were determined as experimental parameters after budding, All budding time and methods were found suitable for nectarine propagation. However, the maximum sprout length (84.64 cm), diameter (0.93 cm), number of branches (34.18) number of leaves per budded plant (134), leaf area (24.20 cm2), survival (62.50%), and total saleable plants (91.97%) and minimum days taken to bud sprout (161.12 days), dead budded plants without sprouting (16.67%) were obtained with shield budding performed on 20th August. Minimum dead budded plants after sprouting (16.67%) was obtained from shield budding practiced on 5th September.
