Abstract

SummaryA bud grafting trial was carried out with five clones differing in vigour, using each clone both as rootstock and as scion. The vigour of the clones was assessed in terms of pruning weight per unit area of the pruned bush surface. The magnitude of the difference in vigour between the rootstock and the scion clones was found to be a satisfactory indication of grafting success, provided that the stock was the more vigorous of the two clones. The rootstock influenced the leaf yielding capacity of the scion, but it did not affect the liquor quality of the leaf.
