Abstract:
Epicotyl grafting was performed in the month of August on 7 days and 9 days old seedling rootstocks of mango using Dashehari as scion stock. The objective was to analyze the effect of age of root stock on the performance of epicotyl grafting in mango. Based on the results of two years study, it can be concluded that epicotyl grafting in mango was found to be most successful in terms of bud sprouting growth and survival percent when performed on 7 days old seedling rootstock (17.39 % increase in percent success) over 9 days old seedling rootstock.
