Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Eggplant scions united well with S. palinacanthum rootstocks.
- Observation Grafted eggplants grew stably.
- Observation S. palinacanthum appeared incompatible with tomato.
- Intervention effect Grafting eggplants on S. palinacanthum suppressed M. incognita reproduction in pots.
- Intervention effect Grafting did not significantly alter eggplant yield.
- Intervention effect Grafting did not alter fruit α‐solasonine content.
- Intervention effect Grafting did not alter fruit α‐solamargine content.
- Recommendation The authors consider S. palinacanthum a promising rootstock for eggplant IPM against root-knot nematodes.
