Determination of the effect of cucumber grafting on some morphological and physiological characteristics in hydroponic conditions

Due to the benefits and importance of use grafted seedlings, demand for high quality seedlings is increasing. In this study, it was aimed determine effect rootstocks on some morphological physiological parameters cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plant under hydroponic growing conditions. seven different non-grafted characteristics were compared. Non-grafted used as control plants. The values measured in at least one grafting application 9 and/or among 12 higher than leaf chlorophyll content (SPAD), photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) root dry weight/fresh weight rate measurements, plants not lower It determined that Cremna Devrim effective terms shoot length biomass values, but rootstock did have a significant activity. concluded may cause advantages parameters, effects largely depend selection.
