Grapevine Rootstock Influences Growth, Yield, and Quality of Fantasy Seedless Grapevines (Vitis vinifera L.) Grown Under Semi-Arid Condition
Published: 2024-04-18

Abstract

The experiment was conducted during three years (2017-2020) to study the effect of rootstocks (140Ru, Dogridge, 110R and own rooted vines) on growth, yield, quality, and nutrient contents of Fantasy Seedless. The growth parameters such as minimum days to bud sprout was recorded in own rooted vines. Maximum stock: scion ratio was recorded in vines grafted on 140Ru rootstock. Average bunch weight, 50 berry weight and yield per vine were maximum in vines grafted on 140Ru rootstock. The maximum berry diameter and minimum physiological loss in weight was recorded in vines grafted on 140Ru rootstock. Whereas, maximum TSS and acidity was recorded in own rooted vines. As regards nutrient content viz., maximum phosphorous was recorded in vines grafted on Dogridge rootstock while, maximum calcium content was recorded in vines grafted on 140Ru rootstock.
