dc.description.abstract | An experiment entitled “Evaluation of brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) grafts for growth, yield and yield attributing characters” was conducted with the major objectives of monitoring the changes induced by different rootstock-scion combinations in terms of plant growth and yield of brinjal at Research block, Department of Vegetable Science, COH, Bengaluru, GKVK Post, Karnataka during the year 2017-18. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with two brinjal hybrids Galine-F1 and Mahy-11 grafted onto seven different rootstocks and non-grafted were used as control. The highest graft success (96.67%) was recorded in T1 (Galine F1 grafted onto Solanum torvum Swartz). Overall vegetative growth was highest in grafted plants. Among different treatments, T1 ( Galine F1 grafted onto Solanum torvum Swartz ) recorded maximum plant height (93.00 cm). Maximum number of leaves (372.98) and number of branches (15.29) and number flowers per plant (41.55) was recorded in T7 (Mahy-11 grafted onto Solanum torvum Swartz). A positive effect of grafting was recorded when Solanum torvum Swartz was used as rootstock. The highest average fruit weight was recorded in T1 (Galine F 1 grafted onto Solanum torvum Swartz) (257.57 g). Galine F 1 grafted onto Solanum torvum Swartz (T1) recorded the highest fruit diameter, fruit length and fruit volume. Mahy-11 grafted onto Solanum torvum Swartz (T7) observed maximum number of fruits per plant (30.18) and yield per hectare (61.11 t/ha). The cost of graft production was Rs. 4.14 /- and 4.12 /- per graft of Galine F1 and Rs. 3.61/- and 3.59/- per graft of Mahy-11 when grafted onto wild rootstock and cultivated rootstock respectively. The highest BC ratio (1 : 2.71) was recorded in T7 (Mahy-11 grafted onto Solanum torvum Swartz). Grafted Mahy-11 performed best in flowering and yield characters when Solanum torvum Swartz was used as rootstock. | en_US |
