Grafting vines as a means of propagation was known as early as the 2 century B.C. (Cato in his treatise De agri cultua.). The use of rootstocks in Vitis, however, was not extensively used until 1880 because it was the only effective method to combat the devastating root louse phylloxera, Phylloxera vitifoliae (Fitch), (Coombe, 1999). In California, grape growers have been using rootstocks for o...

This study was conducted Razakı grape variety (Vitis vinifera L.) and its vine which was aged 19 was grown on 5 BB rootstock in a vegetation period of 2014 in Afyon province in Turkey. In this research, it was investigated whether the applications of Control (C), 1/3 Cluster Tip Reduction (1/3 CTR), Shoot Tip Reduction (STR), 1/3 CTR + STR, Boric Acid (BA), 1/3 CTR + BA, STR + BA, 1/3 CTR + STR...

Controlled atmosphere treatments with ultralow oxygen (ULO treatments) were developed successfully for control of vine mealybug, Planococcusflcus Signoret (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), on dormant grape (Vitis spp.) benchgrafts. At 30 ppm oxygen, 3-d ULO treatment at 25 degrees C and 4-d ULO treatment at 150C achieved complete control of all life stages of P. ficus. At a much lower oxygen level (...

The use of scions grafted onto passionfruit vines has become an alternative to their cultivation in areas with a history fusariosis. However, the combinations between graft and rootstock can influence on productivity longevity farm. objective was evaluate mortality cv BRS Rubi do Cerrado three species Terra Nova Norte-MT. design randomized block 4 treatments (BRS-RC) seedling plant along those ...

Under the current and future climate crisis, a significant rise in soil salinity will likely affect vine productivity several Mediterranean regions. During present research, rootstock effects on tolerance of Merlot Cabernet Franc grapevine cultivars were studied. In pot hydroponic culture, own-rooted or grafted onto rootstocks 1103 P 101-14 Mgt drip-irrigated with saline water. A completely ran...

Background and Aims Rootstock type can lead to differences in scion canopy growth fruit yield by conferring specific traits the scion. Conferred may interact alter relationship between vine water use yield, providing a mechanism whereby rootstocks could be used improve efficiency of production. This study aimed determine whether rootstock conferred vigour crop index (yield per unit transpired) ...

Over the past decade, business of producing juice from grapes (Vitis labrusca L. and hybrids) has been expanding in response to increasing consumption encouraged by campaigns promoting benefits grape can have on health. This study aimed determine effect production cycle, vine training system, rootstock yield physical physical-chemical characteristics ‘BRS Magna’ grown Vale do Submédio São Franc...
