Grafting involves connecting two pieces of plant tissue to grow as one plant. It includes a scion, which forms the above-ground part, and a rootstock, which provides the root system. The aim is to match the cambium tissues of the scion and rootstock. Reasons for grafting include propagating plants that cannot be easily propagated otherwise, controlling tree growth, conferring disease resistance, and bringing fruiting plants into production earlier. Key factors for a successful graft include using compatible plant materials, making clean cuts, and providing proper care of the graft union as it heals.
The inability or Failure of two different plant Grafted together to produce a successful graft union is called Graft incompatibility.
Some pear cultivars are successfully grafted on quince rootstock, whereas, the other may die soon. However the reverse combination i.e. the quince on pear rootstock is always a failure
High Density Planting is a method of densely planting plant with plant population more than the optimum to get higher productivity in terms of quality and yield by manipulating the tree architecture and planting systems such as use of dwarfing rootstock, interstocks, scions, spurs; intensive use of growth regulators, training and pruning, cultural practices and reducing the spacing. The main principle is to improve efficiency of horizontal and vertical space utilisation per unit time, and resources and input utilisation. There is a balance between the vegetative and fruiting structures without affecting the plant health. Advantages include increased productivity, high income, efficient use of resources and mechanisation and operational efficacy
Guava is an important fruit crop in tropical and subtropical regions of the country due to the hardy nature of its tree and prolific bearing even in marginal lands.
The Meadow Orchard is a modern method of fruit cultivation.
Recently, there is a trend to plant fruit trees at closer spacing leading to high density or meadow orchard. Higher and quality production is achieved from densely planted orchards through judicious canopy management and adoption of suitable tree training systems.

Training is an important operation in grapes.
It helps to maintain the stature and spread of the vine and facilitates operations like pruning, intercultivation, spraying and harvesting.
Many training systems are in vogue in India, but the most popular are Bower, Telephone and Kniffin systems.
Radish is a popular vegetable in both tropical as well as temperate regions. It is cultivated under glass house conditions for early market, but large scale cultivation in the field is more I common. Being a quick growing crop it can be easily planted as a companion crop or intercrop between the rows of the other vegetables. It can also be planted on ridges, separating one plot from another. It is cultivated all over India, especially near the city markets. Radish originated probably in China. In India, it seems to have been cultivated from ancient times. It was popular among the ancient Egyptians and Greeks. The botanical name of radish is Raphanus sativus. The enlarged edible roots are fusiform and differ in colour from white to red.
I had written on the topic of litchi cultivation as an assignment of Pomology given by Mr. manoj Basnet, Department of Horticulture. This consist of different sub topics including varities, method of planting, diseases of litchi etc

To improve the knowledge about principle and practice of canopy management in fruit crop
Enhancing understanding of canopy management principles and practices in fruit crops is paramount for optimizing orchard productivity. This involves comprehending canopy architecture, growth patterns, and physiological processes influencing fruit production. Through targeted practices such as pruning, thinning, and training, canopy structure, light penetration, and airflow are optimized, promoting balanced vegetative growth, flowering, and fruit set. Moreover, knowledge of rootstock-scion interactions allows for tailored canopy management strategies, further enhancing fruit quality and yield. By honing canopy management expertise, growers can maximize resource utilization, mitigate disease susceptibility, and improve overall fruit crop sustainability and profitability.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2. Grafting
Defn: connecting 2 pieces of plant
tissue to grow as one plant
It includes the SCION which
forms the above ground part
of the grafted plant:
AND the ROOTSTOCK which
is the lower portion of the
grafted plant which provides
the root system for the new
3. Grafting
An INTERSTOCK or intermediate
rootstock may be used with some
fruit trees where a degree of
incompatibility occurs:
Interstocksare not normally
needed with ornamental plants:
Graftingwith interstocks is referred
to as DOUBLE WORKING
4. Grafting
The aim of grafting is to make clean cuts in
the tissue of the two pieces so that the
CAMBIUM tissues can be matched together:
Cambium is the main layer of meristematic
tissue in woody plants:
It is located as a thin layer of tissue
immediately under the bark in stem and
roots:
5. The botanical limits of grafting
Grafting within

Grafting of species
within the same
genus:
Grafting of different
genera within the
same family:
Grafting between
families:
6. Reasons for grafting plants
Topropagate plants
which cannot be
economically
propagated by other
techniques
Eg. Cultivars
of
ornamental shrubs
and trees
7. Reasons for grafting plants
Tocontrol the growth
and performance of

19. Tying materials for grafting
With t-budding, simple rubber
budding patches are often used:
The rubber is biodegradable and
they will disintegrate within 4-6
weeks:
PVC budding tape is widely used
but must be cut off after the graft
union has formed:
20. Tying materials for grafting
At UQ Gatton we use the medical
laboratory tape “PARAFILM”:
This is a thin, stretchable tape
which seals the graft union very
effectively against the entry of
water:
It also degrades rapidly so it does
not need to be removed:
22. Veneer Grafting
Selection of Scion: Scion stick or bud stick should be healthy
with swollen eye buds and 10 to 15 cm length and of pencil size
thickness. Leaves are defoliated 8 to 10 days before cutting for
grafting.
Procedure
Make a slanting cut up to 5 cm to the bud stick and same length
deep notch to mango rootstock seedling.
Put the cut part of scion in the notch of rootstock and tie with 1
cm wide polythene film tape.
23. Veneer Grafting
Season: Veneer grafting should be performed in the month of September to
October
After Care
Grafted plants / seedlings are kept humid and moist condition.
Scion shoot starts sprouting in about 3 to 4 weeks.
Polythene strip should be removed after the success of graft.
Grafts ready for planting in 3 months. Success rate is 75 to 80 %.
24. Stone Grafting
Selection of Scion: Scion sticks with 7 to 8 cm long from
current year growth from healthy mother plants should be
selected.
Procedure
Stone grafting operation should be performed in July- August
months.
Vertical cut of 3 to 4 cm is given on the rootstock and a
corresponding wedge shaped cut is given on the scion.
Wedge shaped cut on scion is matched with the cut on rootstock
and then tied firmly with a polythene strip.
25. Stone Grafting
After Care
Remove the growing shoots from root stock and inflorescence from
grafted scion immediately after emergence.
Remove the polythene strip when union is formed and protect the graft
from hot sun, pest and disease attack.
Advantages
Survival Success is more than 80 to 90 %, Requires less time and this
Method is very suitable for coastal region.

28. Inarch Grafting
Selection of Scion and Rootstock:
Select one year old at least two feet long and healthy rootstock
grown in pots / polythene bags.
Root stock plant and scion stock plant sticks should have equal
thickness. It should be from current year growth and from
healthy mother plant
Season
August-September is best season for Inarch Grafting.
29. Inarch Grafting
Procedure:
Arrange the root stocks and scion tree on some platform or
mandapam and Mark the grafting locations on stock and scion.
Remove 5 cm long, 1 to 2 cm wide & about 0.2 cm deep slice
of bark along with wooden part from stock and scion branches.
Bring the cut surfaces together, cover the joint with a banana
leaf sheath and tie them together with soft threads and cover joint
part with cow dung plaster to protect from rain water.
30. Inarch Grafting
After care
Water the plants as and when required. Cut the scion from the
parent tree after 2 to 3 months when the wound has healed.
One week after separating the plant from root stock, the part of
the rootstock above the graft is cut off.
Keep the graft in semi shading area to harden the graft before
transplanting into the main field.
31. Grafting Methods
Bench grafting
Field methods
Container or field methods
Repair grafting
33. Whip-and-tongue grafting
useful for small (1/4-1/2 in.) material,
double working (interstocks), root
grafting, and bench grafting
splice grafting (the tongue is not
made)
both stock and scion are dormant
46. Saddle grafting
useful for machine grafting, bench grafting of
grape and Rhododendron
scion and stock should be the same size
grafting is done when stock and scion are
dormant, then the completed graft is stored in a
grafting case until the graft union has healed
49. Cleft grafting
useful for topworking fruit trees,
crown-grafting grapes
the best time is early spring,
before active growth
wedge grafting allows 1 more
scion per stock
50.
51.
52. Bark grafting
Two types (rind and inlay-bark grafts)
differ only in prep of stock’s bark, which
should be slipping
often used in lieu of cleft graft later in the
season
55. Side grafting
defn: (smaller) scion inserted into the side
of a (larger) stock
Types
side-stub: nursery trees too large for whip-and-
tongue, not large enough for cleft
side-tongue: useful for broad- and narrow-
leaved evergreens (e.g., oriental arbovitae)
side-veneer: useful for small potted plants, e.g.,
upright junipers
56.
57.
58. Approach grafting
two independent plants are grafted
together
after union, the top of the stock and
the base of the scion are removed
used when other methods are
unsuccessful (e.g., Camellia)
often done on plants in containers
three methods: spliced-, tongued-,
and inlay-approach grafting
61. Inarching
used for repairing damaged roots of
a full-grown tree.
seedlings are planted around the
tree during the dormant season,
grafting is done in the spring.
62.
63. Bridge grafting
used for repairing a damaged
trunk
early spring (with the bark
slipping) is the best time
(dormant) scion wood should be
1/4 to 1/2 in. diam.
64.
65.
66. Technique Date Use
Bark grafting Mid-April through mid-May Establish a pollinating variety on a limb of a tree or
to completely topwork a tree.
Bridge grafting Mid-April through mid-May Repair trees girdled above the ground line.
Cleft grafting Late February and March Establish a pollinating variety on a limb of a tree or
to completely topwork a tree. Limbs should be 1
inch or more in diameter.
Inarch grafting Mid-April through mid-May Repair trees girdled at or below the ground line.
Also used if a root disease is suspected or feared.
Saw-kerf grafting February and March On peaches, nectarines and plums to completely
topwork a tree.
Whip grafting February and early March Propagate 1-year-old rootstocks. May also be used
to establish a pollinating limb on a young,
established tree.
67. The Biology of Grafting
Natural grafting
◦ Bracing of limbs in commercial orchards to
support weight of fruit
◦ Root grafting in woods is prevalent (CHO’s of
upper canopy trees provide support for
understory trees). This grafts only occur
between trees of the same species
◦ Problems with root grafting include:
transmission of fungi, bacteria and viruses
between plants (Dutch Elm Disease spreads this
way)
68.
69. The Biology of Grafting
Formation of the graft union
◦ A “de novo” formed meristematic area
must develop between scion and rootstock
for a successful graft union
3 events
◦ 1) adhesion of the rootstock & scion
◦ 2) proliferation of callus at the graft
interface = callus bridge
◦ 3) vascular differentiation across the graft
interface
70.
71. The Biology of Grafting
Steps in graft union formation
◦ 1.) lining up of the vascular cambium of rootstock and
scion. Held together with wrap, tape, staples, nails or
wedged together
◦ 2.) wound response
Necrotic layer 1 cell deep forms on both scion and stock
Undifferentiated callus tissue is produced from uninjured
parenchyma cells below the necrotic layer
Callus forms a wound periderm (outer “bark”) which becomes
suberized to prevent entry of pathogens
Necrotic layer dissolves
72. The Biology of Grafting
◦ 3.) callus bridge formation
Callus proliferates for 1 - 7 days
Callus mostly comes from scion (due to
basal movement of auxins and CHO’s, etc.)
An exception to this is on established
rootstock which can develop more callus
than that from the scion.
Adhesion of scion and stock cells with a mix
of pectins, CHO’s and proteins. Probably
secreted by dictyosomes which are part of
the Golgi bodies in cells.
73.
74. The Biology of Grafting
◦ 4.) Wound-repair :
First the xylem and then the phloem is
repaired
Occurs through differentiation of vascular
cambium across the callus bridge
Process takes 2 - 3 weeks in woody plants
◦ 5.) Production of 2º xylem and phloem
from new vascular cambium in the callus
bridge
Important that this stage be completed before
much new leaf development on scion or else
the leaves will wilt and the scion may die
75. The Biology of Grafting
Some water can be translocated through
callus cells but not enough to support leaves
Cell-to-cell transport via plasmodesmata =
symplastic transport (links cells membranes)
Apoplastic transport is between adhering
cells
76.
77. Graft Incompatibility
Compatibility = ability of two
different plants grafted together to
produce a successful union and
continue to develop satisfactorily
Graft failure: caused by anatomical
mismatching/poor craftmanship,
adverse environment, disease and
graft incompatibility
78. Graft Incompatibility
Graft incompatibility from:
◦ Adverse physiological responses
between grafting partners
◦ Virus transmission
◦ Anatomical abnormalities of the
vascular tissue in the callus bridge
79. Graft Incompatibility
External symptoms of incompatibility
◦ Failure of successful graft or bud union in
high percentages
◦ Early yellowing or defoliation in fall
◦ Shoot die-back and ill-health
◦ Premature death
◦ Marked differences in growth rate of scion
and stock
Overgrowth at, above or below the graft union
Suckering of rootstock
Breakage at the graft union
80. Graft Incompatibility
Anatomical flaws leading to
incompatibility
◦ Poor vascular differentiation
◦ Phloem compression and vascular
discontinuity
◦ Delayed incompatibility may take 20 years
to show up (often in conifers and oaks)
81. Graft Incompatibility
Physiological and Pathogen-Induced
Incompatibility
◦ Non-translocatable = localized. Problem is fixed
by using mutually compatible interstock(no
direct contact between scion and stock)
◦ Translocatable = spreads. Interstock does not
solve the problem. Some mobile chemical
causes phloem degradation. Ex: cyanogenic
glucosides like prunasin is converted to
hydrocyanic acid (from Quince to pear)
82. Graft Incompatibility
◦ Pathogen-induced virus of phytoplasma
induced
◦ Tristeza = viral disease of budded sweet
orange that is grafted onto infected
sour orange rootstock
83. Graft Incompatibility
Correcting incompatible
combinations
◦ Generally not cost-effective. Remove
and top-work the rootstock
◦ Bridge graft with a mutually compatible
rootstock
◦ Inarch with a seedling of compatible
rootstock
