Effect of Grafting on Watermelon Plant Growth, Yield and Quality
Journal of Agronomy, 2007 In this study, the effect of different rootstocks on watermelon plant growth, fruit yield and quality were studied by comparing grafted plants with non-grafted ones under low tunnels for early production and later open field growing conditions. The watermelon (Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum and Nakai) cultivar Crispy was grafted onto TZ-148 and RS ...

Effects of rootstocks on storage and shelf life of grafted watermelons
Journal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2016 Watermelon fruits from non-grafted or grafted ‘Crimson Tide’ (CT) and ‘Crisby’ (CR) onto Ferro, RS841, Argentario and Macis rootstocks were compared for their postharvest quality during storage at 7 °C for 21 days and additional 7 days at 21 °C. Non-grafted and grafted CT and CR fruits did not exhibit chilling injury (CI) symptoms, but the 1-2% of ...
