Some biochemical characteristics of grafted watermelon
Indian Journal of Horticulture, 2017Grafting is an alternative approach to reduce crop damage resulting from soil-borne pathogens. This approach also increases plant abiotic stress tolerance, which in turn increases crop yield and quality. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the effect of grafting on watermelon quality parameters with the use of different rootstock ...

Grafting is commonly used to relieve damage caused by soil-borne diseases and to enhance the nutrient uptake in watermelon plants. Certain reports have shown the proteomic changes of plant tissues involved in grafting, while little information about the secretome after watermelon grafting is available.

Fruit quality of mini‐watermelon as affected by grafting and irrigation regimes
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2008AbstractBACKGROUND: The Mediterranean region suffers water deficit that affects fruit yield and quality. Grafting improves crop tolerance to disease and drought, but the taste and quality of fruit may be negatively affected. The aim of the present work was to determine the quality parameters of mini‐watermelon, ungrafted or grafted onto a squash hybrid

grafting increase watermelon seedling chilling tolerance
2021The experiment was carried out at Huazhong Agricultural University (Wuhan, China). The watermelon line ‘97103’ (Citrullus lanatus, a chilling-sensitive inbred line) was used as the scion and the pumpkin Qingyan No.1 (Cucurbita maxima × C. moschata, a chilling tolerant cultivar) was used as the rootstock.
