“…111 Additionally, melon cultivar 'Khatooni' grafted onto 'Ace' and 'Shintoza' rootstocks showed increased N, P and K concentrations. 112 According to Consentino et al 113 grafting of 'Birgah' eggplant onto Solanum torvum rootstock significantly increased protein, K, Fe and Zn content by 22.9, 7.2, 20.0 and 2.4%, respectively, compared to non-grafted plants. Furthermore, tomato fruits' 'Big Red' grafted onto 'Heman' had higher Ca contents as a result of improved water and nutrient uptake from the rootstock's vigorous root system.…”

BACKGROUNDPrevious research has established that using high‐quality planting material during the early phase of vegetable production significantly impacts success and efficiency, leading to improved crop performance, faster time to harvest and better profitability. In the present study, we conducted a global analysis of vegetable seedlings and transplants, providing a comprehensive overview of research trends in seedling and transplant production to enhance the nutritional quality of vegetables.RESULTSThe analysis involved reviewing and quantitatively analysing 762 articles and 5248 keywords from the Scopus database from 1971 to 2022. We used statistical, mathematical and clustering tools to analyse bibliometrics and visualise the most relevant research topics. A visualisation map was generated to identify the evolution of keywords used in the articles, resulting in five clusters for further analysis. Our study highlights the importance of the size of seed trays for the type of crop, the mechanical seeder used and the greenhouse facilities to produce desirable transplants. We identified grafting and light‐emitting diode (LED) lighting technology as rapidly expanding technologies in vegetable seedlings and transplant production used to promote plant qualitative profile.CONCLUSIONThere is a need for sustainable growing media to optimise resources and reduce input use. Thus, applying grafting, LED artificial lighting, biostimulants, biofortification and plant growth‐promoting microorganisms in seedling production can enhance efficiency and promote sustainable vegetable nutritional quality by accumulating biocompounds. Further research is needed to explore the working mechanisms and devise novel strategies to enhance the product quality of vegetables, commencing from the early stages of food production. © 2024 The Authors.

“…These authors observed that the phosphorus (P) and Mg contents of fruit grafted on to 'Shintosa' were lower than those grafted on to C. melo rootstocks or non-grafted melons. In fruit of 'Khatooni', nitrogen (N), P and K were higher in fruit from plants grafted on to ' Ace' or 'Shintoza' (Salehi et al, 2014). Khah et al (2006) investigated the mineral content of tomato fruits from 'Big Red' grafted on to hybrid rootstocks 'Heman' and 'Primavera'.…”

In Pakistan vegetables are grown on fairly a large area and help to fulfill the food requirements of increasing population. The average yield of vegetables in Pakistan is lower compared with the other vegetables growing countries; several reasons contribute towards this low yield such as biotic factors (diseases and pest attack), abiotic factors (low and high temperature stress, high light intensity, water scarcity, and salinity), seed quality, and potential of local vegetable's cultivars. Vegetable grafting is commercially practiced in more than 28 countries across the world. According to the best of our knowledge, up till now there is no research work or practical application of vegetable grafting in Pakistan. Thus in this review we have tried to highlight the importance of vegetable grafting, and how this technique can help uplift/boost up the vegetable sector of Pakistan. Additionally, a working model has been suggested for the development of vegetable grafting in the country. In Pakistan, vegetables such as cucumber, melon, watermelon, tomato, pepper, and bell pepper are sown in plastic tunnels during winter (November and December) to get off season/early produce, however, because of low temperature during the early crop growth period (November-February), a slow rate of growth is observed. Grafting of these vegetable onto selected low temperature tolerant rootstocks can enhance the growth and productivity of vegetables. On the contrary, watermelon, muskmelon, tomato and chilies cultivated under field conditions during the summer season (March-September) suffer from higher temperatures and water scarcity. The use of appropriate rootstocks can enhance the heat and drought tolerance of these vegetables. In short, grafting can be utilized to overcome a large number of problems associated with vegetable production in Pakistan such as soil borne and foliar pathogens, nematodes attack, low and high temperatures stress, salt and heavy metals stress, drought and flooding stress. Additionally, grafting can improve the yield; prolong harvesting period and postharvest life of vegetables, provided appropriate rootstocks are utilized. Grafting of vegetables ensures limited use of inputs (pesticides and fertilizers), thus protects environment, promotes organic vegetable production; and it can help to uplift the economic status of farmers of Pakistan.
