The aim of this study was to investigate the possibilities of application of in vitro micrografting method in vines. In the study, shoot tips with apical meristem and 1-2 leafprimordia of Early Cardinal and Yalova incisi were grafted on the cut surface of the hypocotyls of Dogridge, Salt Creek, 1613 C and 41 B American rootstocks under aseptic conditions. From all the grafting combinations tested grafted plants were produced at different rates of success. The best results were obtained from Early Cardinal/41 B and Early Cardinal/Salt Creek combinations with 80 % and 71.4 % grafting success rates, respectively. Considering the other characteristics Early Cardinal combinations produce better results than Yalova incisi. |
