Performance of eggplant grafted on tomato and eggplant rootstocks
Summary Yield and fruit characteristics of eggplant, cv. 'Delica' (flask type fruit), were studied in relation to grafting and K rate. The vegetative growth and yield of plants grafted on to tomato rootstocks cv. '515' and '516' (Spyrou A.E.B.E., Athens) was superior to that of the non-grafted control, whereas plants grafted on to ...
