Ralstonia solanacearum is a causative agent of bacterial wilt and therefore poses serious threat to cultivated peppers (Capsicum annuum L.). Although attempts have been made control by grafting, the disease resistance mechanisms that protect grafted are poorly understood. Here, we grew composed rootstock Buyeding or Weishi scion Xinfeng 2. Following infection R. solanacearum, assessed differenc...

the present study was done to investigate the correlation between biochemical changes of grafted tree fruits and rootstock fruits in gorgan university of agricultural science and natural resources in 2012-2013. for this purpose, the antioxidant activity and the total content of phenol and  flavonoid on four rootstocks such as yuzu (citrus junos), shelmahalleh (citrus sinensis var. shel mahalleh...

A facile temperature induced self-assembly and self-crosslinking method has been developed for preparing bioreducible nanogels/microgels without need of any stabilizer, catalyst or additional crosslinking agent. The size of formed nanogels/microgels can be easily tuned via the polymer concentration.

Two greenhouse experiments were carried out to analyze the shoot sodium (Na) partitioning, yield, and fruit quality of ‘Cuore di Bue’, a salt-sensitive heirloom tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.), ungrafted or grafted onto interspecific tomato hybrid rootstocks (S. lycopersicum 3 S. habrochaites) ‘Maxifort’ and ‘Arnold’ in 2009, ‘Arnold’ and ‘Armstrong’ in 2010, grown at different salinity stress...

Drought is one of the most important abiotic stress factors affecting crop yields and qualities worldwide. One drought-sensitive plant cucumber, which has a high transpiration rate. Grafting recognized as promising approach to increasing tolerance stresses in cucumber. In this study, it aimed determine rootstock that will prevent negative changes some growth, physiological genetic parameters cu...

In this study, the potential of 8-Hydroxyquinoline grafted SBA-15 to extract of Cu2+ cations from aqueous solutions was investigated. SBA-15 nanoporous silica was chemically grafted with 8-Hydroxyquinoline groupsaccording to the procedure in the literature. The presence of organic groups in the silica framework was demonstrated by FTIR spectrum. The grafted product showed th...

Soil salinization poses a huge challenge to the development of agriculture and seriously decreases crop yield quality. In recent years, grafting has become one key agronomic techniques used enhance plant abiotic stress tolerance. this study, we found that watermelon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai] grafted onto bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria Standl.) significantly enhanced sa...

Tissue grafting includes applications ranging from plant breeding to animal organ transplantation. Donor and recipient are generally believed to maintain their genetic integrity, in that the grafted tissues are joined but their genetic materials do not mix. We grafted tobacco plants from two transgenic lines carrying different marker and reporter genes in different cellular compartments, the nu...
