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.

Morphological changes in the compatible grafts of tomato cv. PKM 1 with different solanaceous rootstocks

TL;DR: In this article, a study was proposed to understand the morphology of the compatible graft of tomato cv. PKM 1 with different solanaceous rootstocks, i.e., Solanum torvum * PKM1, Solanus aculeatissimum and Solanium sisymbriifolium.

Economic Analysis, Growth and Yield of Grafting Tomato Varieties for Solanum torvum as a Rootstock

TL;DR: The study showed that grafting tomato Timoty scion with Solanum torvum as rootstock had higher production and higher profit and financial benefits, and economic analysis, growth, and yield including plant height, number of leaves, percentage of disease and tomato production were used as performance measures.

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, +1 more
- 01 Jul 1995 - 
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.

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.
