Abstract

Removal of the cotyledons of eggplant seedlings by ethrel (chemical name : 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid) and brushing treatment was examined to obtain the height to the cotyledons suitable for grafting robot. Effects of spraying of 800 ppm ehtrel and brushing on the removal of the cotyledons for 'Senryou-2gou' seedlings, and 400 ppm ethrel and brushing for 'Akanasu' and 'Daitarou' seedlings were obtained. The vegetative growth and flowering of eggplant seedlings before and after grafting were unaffected by ethrel treatment.
