Proteomic Analysis of Fusarium oxysporum-Induced Mechanism in Grafted Watermelon Seedlings. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2021 Grafting can improve the resistance of watermelon to soil-borne diseases. However, the molecular mechanism of defense response is not completely understood. Herein, we used a proteomic approach to investigate the molecular basis involved in grafted watermelon leaf defense against Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. niveum (FON) infection.

Methyl jasmonate mediates melatonin-induced cold tolerance of grafted watermelon plants. [PDF]
Hortic Res, 2021 AbstractRoot–shoot communication has a critical role in plant adaptation to environmental stress. Grafting is widely applied to enhance the abiotic stress tolerance of many horticultural crop species; however, the signal transduction mechanism involved in this tolerance remains unknown.

A Statistical Mechanics Model to Decode Tissue Crosstalk During Graft Formation. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)We introduce a statistical mechanics framework to decode the genomic crosstalk governing plant grafting. By integrating evolutionary game theory with transcriptomics, we reconstruct idopNetworks (informative, dynamic, omnidirectional, and personalized networks) that map scion–rootstock interactions.

Exogenous Treatments to Enhance Splice-Grafted Watermelon Survival [PDF]
Horticulturae, 2021 This study evaluated the use of splice grafting as a propagation strategy for watermelon. In experiment 1, the treatments consisted of sucrose, antitranspirant A, antitranspirant B, auxin (indole-3-butyric acid (IBA)) at two concentrations (10 and 20 mg·L−1), plus a water control. The survival (%) of splice-grafted watermelon plants differed due to the

Salinity tolerance of grafted watermelon seedlings [PDF]
Acta Biologica Hungarica, 2017 In order to evaluate the salinity tolerance of grafted watermelon, two sets of experiments were conducted in a growing chamber where 'Esmeralda' varieties were grafted onto interspecific squash (Cucurbita maxima Duch. × Cucurbita moschata Duch.) and Lagenaria siceraria rootstocks. Both non-grafted and self-garfted plants were used for control. For salt

Grafting Methods for Watermelon Production [PDF]
HortScience, 2008 Vegetable grafting is most common in European and Asian countries where crop rotation is no longer an option and available land is under intense use. Grafting is an alternative approach to reduce crop damage resulting from soilborne pathogens and increase plant abiotic stress tolerance, which increases crop production.

Anatomical Study on Watermelon Grafting [PDF]
Journal of Plant Production, 2017 The present study was carried out at Al-Amana nursery in Talkha district, Dakahlya Governorate, Egypt, during the summer season of 2014 to study the effects of different graft combinations between rootstocks and scion of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum et Nakai) var. Lanatus cv. Aswan F1.

Rootstock mediates transcriptional regulation of citrulline metabolism in grafted watermelon [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2021 Abstract Citrulline is a non-essential amino acid, involved in key biological functions in plants and humans. Rootstocks have a major impact on citrulline accumulation in grafted watermelon. Information regarding rootstock induced changes in citrulline metabolism is elusive.

Antitranspirant Application Increases Grafting Success of Watermelon [PDF]
HortTechnology, 2017 The one-cotyledon splice grafting method is commonly used for watermelon ( Citrullus lanatus ) because it is relatively rapid and there is less rootstock regrowth than with other grafting methods.

ECONOMICS OF GRAFTED VS CONVENTIONAL WATERMELON PLANTS [PDF]
HortScience, 2006 Grafting of watermelons has been used in many countries to provide control of, or resistance to, certain soil borne diseases such as Fusarium wilt. The impact of grafting on postharvest quality has not been thoroughly examined. This report deals with the comparison of the costs of production between grafted versus conventional watermelons and the ...
