“…2 negated the yield benefits of grafting, partially because of failure to extend fruit production into the summer under Florida conditions. Hossain et al (2019) used 'BARI Tomato-4' (%50 g/fruit) as scion and reported that rootstock impacts on total fruit number and yield as well as average fruit weight were rootstock cultivar dependent. 2018) grafted two small fruit tomato cultivars (average weight 50-61 g) and reported that all tested rootstocks decreased average fruit weight, but did not affect fruit number, whereas total fruit yields of grafted plants were either the same or lower than the nongrafted control; this could be because of the short harvest window in their study, as the total yields were only 2.5 to 2.9 kg per plant.…”

Recently, so-called “vegetative” and “generative” rootstocks have been identified by seed companies as rootstock types that have different impacts on tomato scions. In this experiment of grafted grape tomato production in an organically managed high tunnel system, we characterized the effects of vegetative and generative rootstock cultivars on tomato yield components and fruit mineral contents. Grape tomato scions ‘BHN 1022’ (determinate) and ‘Sweet Hearts’ (indeterminate) were grafted onto ‘DR0141TX’ (vegetative), ‘Estamino’ (generative), and ‘Multifort’ (noncharacterized) rootstocks with self- and nongrafted scions as controls. Experiments were conducted twice with different transplanting dates (Expt. 1: 31 Jan. vs. Expt. 2: 9 Mar.) in 2018. No rootstock by scion interaction effects on whole-season fruit yield components were observed, indicating similar responses of determinate and indeterminate grape tomato scions to all rootstocks tested. For Expt. 1, the three rootstocks increased marketable fruit number, marketable yield, and total yield by 23.3%, 37.9%, and 34.4% on average, respectively, compared with the self- and nongrafted controls, primarily due to improved productivity during the peak and late harvest periods. For Expt. 2, the rootstocks did not significantly benefit any whole-season yield components. ‘DR0141TX’ and ‘Multifort’ increased stem diameter in both experiments, whereas ‘Estamino’ only increased stem diameter in Expt. 2 relative to the nongrafted controls. Consistent increase in aboveground dry biomass of rootstock treatments at crop termination in Expt. 1 corresponded to the greater yield of rootstock-grafted plants in that experiment. All rootstocks in both experiments consistently increased fruit P, K, Ca, Zn, and Fe contents on a dry weight basis at peak harvest regardless of the tomato scion used. Despite a relatively low level of root-knot nematode infestation, plants grafted with ‘DR0141TX’ or ‘Estamino’ tended to have lower root galling index ratings than scion controls and ‘Multifort’-grafted plants, which was more evident in Expt. 1. Given the different environmental conditions during the tomato production period between the two experiments conducted in high tunnels, our findings highlight the important influence of production environment on grafted tomato performance. This study on grafted grape tomatoes in high tunnel organic production systems also demonstrated that so-called “vegetative” and “generative” rootstocks had similar impacts on tomato scion yield components and fruit mineral contents.

“…A higher yield of tomato plants depends on the proper selection of both the scion and the rootstock (Ntatsi et al, 2014;Hossain et al, 2019). The results in several studies are not precise; some indicate that the use of grafted plants increases yield; however, other authors have reported an adverse effect of grafting on the performance of the commercial scion.…”

“…Adverse effects on performance were reported by Hossain et al (2019) when comparing grafted plants with non-grafted and self-grafted controls; grafting reduced yield by 10% by area and 15% by plant. Miskovic et al (2016), when grafting tomato cultivar 'Jeremy' on eggplant rootstock cv.…”

“…Djidonou et al (2016) found a positive effect on the performance of the cultivar 'Florida 47' when it was grafted on the 'Beaufort' or 'Multifort' rootstocks when compared to the non-grafted and self-grafted controls. Hossain et al (2019), when comparing grafted plants with the self-grafted and non-grafted controls, found that the use of a rootstock improved the yield by area by 50% and by plant by 56%. According to Rahmatian et al (2014), the yield per plant increased significantly by 27% in grafted plants when compared to their selfgrafted and non-grafted plants.…”

Grafting as a technique is gaining attention, and the production and demand for grafted vegetable plants have increased worldwide, especially for greenhouse cultivation. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of different scion × rootstock combinations or improving the yield of the tomato crop under greenhouse conditions. For this purpose, a scion of tomato cv. Libertador was grafted on two commercial tomato rootstock (‘Olimpo’ and ‘Armada’) and cultivated in a greenhouse in a randomized complete block experiment design, with four scion-rootstock combinations: vigor and resistance rootstocks, self-grafting and non-grafted plants. The yield and yield components were evaluated (number and weight of the fruits of extra, commercial, and non-commercial quality, weight per cluster, and weight per fruit). Although vigor rootstocks produce less fresh fruit in the first harvests, from the seventh harvest onwards, the vigor rootstocks outperformed the other treatments in the accumulated yield by producing 37, 22 and 22% more yield, and 60, 30 and 40% higher number of fruits of extra quality in the resistance rootstock, self-grafted, and non-grafted plants. The fruits plants of vigor rootstock, self-grafted and non-grafted above 150 g, tend to have a cylindrical shape; however, fruits in the resistance rootstock tend to be flattened. The use of a vigor rootstock increased the yield of cv. Libertador, regarding the rootstock with resistance characteristics and controls, self-grafted, and non-grafted plants.

“…TNAU tomato hybrid CO 3 grafted on to Solanum sisymbrifolium rootstock recorded the highest number of branches at 90 days after transplanting (DAT) (19.83) but the lowest number of branches were observed among the grafted plants of Shivam with Solanum capsicoides rootstock (13.63) (Table 3). Similarly, when tomato plants were grafted onto Sunchalo rootstock, increase in number of branches were observed (Hossain et al, 2019) [4] .…”

A grafting study was conducted with three rootstocks viz., Solanum torvum, Solanum sisymbrifolium and Solanum capsicoides and two scion viz., TNAU tomato hybrid CO 3 and Shivam. Among the rootstocks Solanum capsicoides took less time to germinate and germination percentage was more in Solanum sisymbrifolium both at 15 and 25 days after sowing. Success percentage was more in graft combination of Shivam with Solanum sisymbrifolium on 30th and 45th day. The highest plant height was observed in Shivam grafted with Solanum torvum rootstock, whereas total number of branches per plant, days to first flowering, per cent fruit set and yield per plant was high in TNAU tomato hybrid CO 3 grafted with Solanum sisymbrifolium rootstock. Days to fifty percent flowering and fruit weight was positive in nongrafted Shivam compared to other treatments. Days to first fruit set was observed earlier in non-grafted tomato hybrid CO 3. The combination of TNAU tomato hybrid CO 3 grafted with Solanum sisymbrifolium rootstock performed well under field condition for yield and yield contributing characters.
