GRAFTING IN SEEDS, RADICLES, HYPOCOTYLS AND EPICOTYLS OF CHESTNUT

Grafts of chestnut can be done on germinated seeds, the radicle of germinated seeds, and the hypocotyls and epicotyls.
These grafting methods offer several advantages over conventional field grafting, including: no need for stock trees, grafting can be done indoors, timing is not critical and scions that have a small diameter can be used.
In this study, the step by step process and the success of these methods of grafting have been discussed.
