<b>Evaluation of different over-grafting techniques to replace 'Gala' for 'Princesa' apple trees (<em>Malus domestica</em> Borkh.)</b> - DOI: 10.4025/actasciagron.v28i4.781
Abstract
Four grafting methods were compared: whip graft, budding graft, cleft graft and the side graft, aiming at evaluating the best technique to replace ‘Gala’ for ‘Princesa’ apple trees. The experiment was held in São José dos Pinhais – PR in a 3-year old apple tree yard fruit. Six apple trees were selected for the experiment. The assessed characteristics were carried out by the percentage of grafting success (sprouted), sleeping grafts (no sprouts) and dead ones. The experiment was concluded after 62 days of grafting. Results indicated that the budding graft showed to be more effective with a higher index of sprouting. This technique showed no difference concerning the sprouting percentage compared to the whip graft. The budding graft is not recommended to over–graft apple trees.Downloads
