Memoria para optar al título profesional de Ingeniero Agrónomo / Two grafting techniques, the hole insertion (or terminal) and one cotyledon (or slant)
grafting methods, were evaluated in two watermelon (Citrulluslamatus Thunb,) Mansf.)
cultivars grafted on two commercial roootstocks (Lagenaria spp. Ser. and
Cucurbitamaxima x C. moschata) through the survival of plants obtained 30 days following
grafting and under simulated commercial nursery conditions so as to determine which of
the techniques was more suitable for such conditions. A completely randomized design
with two treatments which included the above grafting methods was used. Four
independent experiments were carried out, each of them made up of a different rootstockcultivar
combination. The Delta and Santa Amalia cvs. were used as scions and a
Lagenaria spp. cultivar, known as Aurora, and a Cucurbitamaxima x C. moschata hybrid,
called Tetsukabuto, were used as rootstocks.
Mean survival rates for the four experiments were 58, 74, 60 and 36% for the plants grafted
with hole insertion and 3, 0, 2 and 5% for those grafted with the one cotyledon graft
technique. It was concluded that, for the conditions studied in the four experiments, plant
survival depends on the grafting technique used, the hole insertion technique being more
successful in the number of surviving plants. / Two grafting techniques, the hole insertion (or terminal) and one cotyledon (or slant)
