Eggplant relatives as sources of variation for developing new rootstocks: Effects of grafting on eggplant yield and fruit apparent quality and composition
TLDR
Grafting eggplant onto interspecific eggplant hybrids, especially on the SI × SM hybrid, has proved advantageous for eggplant production, as the high vigour and good compatibility of the rootstock with scion results in improved early and total yield without negative effects on apparent fruit quality or composition.About:

Characterization of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melongenae isolates from Turkey with ISSR markers and DNA sequence analyses
TL;DR: Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) banding profiles, sequence analyses of inter-transcribed-spacer (ITS), translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF-1α), and actin (actA) DNA regions were employed in this study to determine genetic diversity and population structure of Fomg isolates obtained from Turkey.

Grafting as an Alternate Tool for Biotic and Abiotic Tolerance with Improved Growth and Production of Solanaceous Vegetables: Challenges and Scopes in India
TL;DR: A healthy and surplus yield from the land with minimum input is a dream that every farmer aspires for but in order to gain more profit the farmer often become negligent and knowingly or unknowingly he use the chemicals which may have detrimental effects not only on the consumer health but also on the farmer himself and may also cost his life while dealing with it.

Rootstock Effects on Yield and Some Consumer Important Fruit Quality Parameters of Eggplant cv. ‘Madonna’ under Protected Cultivation
TL;DR: The findings confirmed that grafting eggplant decreased firmness (except SH) of the flesh, and the chromatics characters of skin and pulp are slightly influenced by rootstocks.

Grafting improves tomato yield under low nitrogen conditions by enhancing nitrogen metabolism in plants
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of tomato grafting on plant yield, fruit quality, nitrogen content, activities of key nitrogen metabolism enzymes, and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) under different nitrogen fertilizer conditions were investigated.
Dissertation
Influence of grafting on the growth, yield, quality and shelf life of tomatoes (solanum lycopersicum l.) grafted onto three solanum species
TL;DR: This chapter discusses grafting methods and innovations, which have implications for crop productivity, disease resistance and tolerance, and the grafting process in the University of Ghana.

Colorimetry of Total Phenolics with Phosphomolybdic-Phosphotungstic Acid Reagents
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of Folin-Ciocalteu reagent rather than the FolinDenis reagent, gallic acid as a reference standard, and a more reproducible time-temperature color development period was investigated.

Stress-Induced Phenylpropanoid Metabolism.
Richard A. Dixon,Nancy L. Paiva +1 more
TL;DR: Limiting discussion to stress-induced phenylpropanoids eliminates few of the structural classes, because many compounds that are constitutive in one plant species or tissue can be induced by various stresses in another species or in another tissue of the same plant.

Cultivation of grafted vegetables. I. Current status, grafting methods, and benefits
TL;DR: Growing grafted vegetables, compared to growing grafted trees, is seldom practiced in the United States or in other western countries where land use is not intensive, i.e., proper crop rotation is being practiced, however, it is highly popular in Korea, Japan, and some Asian and European countries whereLand use is very intensive and the farming area is small.
