Abstract:
Tissue response, as a result of
wounding in the graft union, affects
the vigor of young trees.
A poor graft
union usually results from one or more
of the following factors: (1) scion;
rootstock incompatability; (2) climatic
conditions in the nursery (such as
drought or temperature stress) detrimental
to the susceptible, developing
parenchyma cells in the graft union;
(3) poor propagating technique in
the nursery; (4) improper handling
of the young trees before planting;
and adverse climatic regimes or exposure
to poor nutrition immediately
after planting.
