“…Grafting has become a common practice in many parts of the world for Solanaceous and Cucurbitaceous plants in the management of soil-borne pathogens (Tsror and Nachmias 1995). Benefits of grafting also include tolerance to salt and water-logged soil (Fernandez-Garcia et al 2002), tolerance to low-temperature (Ahn et al 1999), better water and nutrient uptake and use efficiency (Santa-Cruz et al 2002), increased plant vigour (Lee et al 1998. ), extended the duration of harvest time (Lee 1994), and improved fruit quality (Matsuzoe et al 1996).…”

Dorais, M. 2007. Organic production of vegetables: State of the art and challenges. Can. J. Plant Sci. 87: 1055-1066. In light of the growing concern of Canadians about animal waste, environmental pollution from fertilizers, water quality and greenhouse gas effects, as well as their growing interest in organically grown foods (20% annual growth in North America), the development of sustainable organic production systems for vegetable crops is essential for consumer satisfaction and Canadian grower competitiveness. The target of this paper is to review recent research results on the importance of appropriate soil properties, fertilizers and irrigation management on soil activity, plant growth and environmental health as well as product quality in term of nutritional value and safety issue. Species and cultivar selection, the use of grafting and plant growth promoters will also be discussed. This review will identify new challenges that organic growers have to fulfill in the face of a global market and public awareness of health attributes of food, and then conclude by identifying several prospects for future research with emphasis on the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada research program.

“…One environmentally-friendly technique for avoiding or reducing losses in production caused by abiotic stress conditions in high-yielding genotypes belonging to Solanaceae and Cucurbitaceae families would be to graft them onto rootstocks capable of reducing the negative effect of external stress on the shoot (Savvas et al 2010). The cultivated area of grafted Solanaceae, including a number of important annual fruit-crop plants such as tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), eggplant (Solanum melongena) and pepper (Capsicum annuum), has increased in recent years in order to obtain resistance to soil-borne diseases (Bletsos et al 2003;Davis et al 2008), tolerance against abiotic stresses such as salinity, wet soils and high and low temperatures (Ahn et al 1999;Rivero et al 2003aRivero et al , 2003bEstañ et al 2005;Venema et al 2008;Abdelmageed and Gruda 2009) and to improve fruit quality (Fernández-García et al 2004a, 2004bColla et al 2006).…”

The response of grafted vegetables to stress conditions owing to the nutrient status may be different than that of self-rooted plants, depending mainly on the rootstock genotype. The aim of the present work is to determine the response of reciprocal grafts made between cherry tomato cultivars (Solanum lycopersicum) to moderate water stress, examining uptake and concentration of nutrient. The tomato cultivars Zarina (drought-tolerant) and Josefina (drought-sensitive) were reciprocal grafted and selfgrafted, and ungrafted were used as control. The total content and uptake fluxes of macro-and micronutrients were determined in leaves. Our results show that the use of drought-tolerant cv. Zarina like rootstocks (ZarxJos) showed improve ionome, with increases in nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) concentration and uptake fluxes, and an increase in iron (Fe) and copper (Cu) concentration and uptake under water stress. Besides, the vigorous root system of rootstocks is often capable of absorbing plant nutrients more efficently than scion root, and we have showed that cv. Zarina and ZarxJos develop a better radicular system. This result confirms the hypothesis that grafted plants on vigorous rootstocks can improve mineral nutrition and nutrient uptake with respect to ungrafted plants, especially under water stress conditions.

“…This has been attributed to an increased number of ion transporters in the root plasma membrane (Siddiqi et al, 1984) maybe the consequence of higher shoot demand per unit root fresh weight (Clarkson et al, 1986;White et al, 1987;Engels et al, 1992). Also, increased plasma membrane H + -ATPase gene transcription and translation was shown in roots of cucumber at low temperature (Ahn et al, 1999). In our results (Table 1), we have observed an increase in NO 3 -uptake at cold solution with respect to warm solution, associated with an increase of total N in the plant.…”

“…Nevertheless, plants can respond to their decreased water status by increasing ABA concentrations in the shoot (Udomprasert et al, 1995;Zhang et al, 2008), which triggers stomatal closure (Apostol et al, 2007;Zhang et al, 2008). The decrease in transpiration caused by stomatal closure has been indirectly determined by measuring leaf temperature (Ahn et al, 1999;Malcolm et al, 2008), which has been suggested as a very sensitive parameter in identifying stress caused by low root temperature (Ahn et al, 1999). In sensitive species, stomata may be slow to respond and water stress may occur, which can result in transient or permanent wilting (Sanders and Markhart, 2000).…”

“…We propose the use of CF imaging technique as a tool to detect the possible stress in rose plants under low root temperature. It has been shown that sensitivity to low temperatures may be verified by measuring CF in potato (Greaves and Wilson, 1987), tomato (Willits and Peet, 2001), lettuce (He et al, 2001), cucumber (Ahn et al, 1999), maize (Fracheboud et al, 1999) or roses (Hakan et al, 2000).…”
