Abstract:
The experiment was laid out at Horticultural Research Farm, Department of Horticulture, B. A. College of Agriculture, Anand Agricultural University, Anand during kharif 2017 to find out suitable treatment combination for success and survival of softwood grafting in mulberry. The results revealed that among the four different times of grafting and growing conditions, the grafting on 1st week of July (T2) under poly house with poly cap required minimum days (16.86) for emergence of sprouting of grafts. Grafting on 1st week of July (T2) recorded maximum number of fully opened leaves (12.50 and 21.43/plant at 60 and 90 DAG, respectively, percentage of survival (68.41 and 67.00 respectively) while, at 30, 60 and 90 DAG, maximum incremental length of scion (12.86, 33.49 and 64.11 cm, respectively), incremental girth of scion (3.99, 7.24 and 7.51 mm, respectively), incremental girth of rootstock (5.73, 6.75 and 8.47 mm, respectively), percentage of sprouted grafts (55.13, 67.13 and 69.38%, respectively) and number of shoots per plant (4.86) at 90 days after grafting.
