Other claims from this paper (16)
- Intervention effect Six rootstocks produced very low vine decline disease severity index under artificial inoculation.
- Intervention effect Six rootstocks produced no damping-off under artificial inoculation, a significant result.
- Observation All rootstocks produced high grafting success and low graft failure with four muskmelon cultivars.
- Intervention effect Rootstocks enhanced early harvesting of grafted Tamara scions.
- Intervention effect Rootstocks had no effect on early harvesting of other scions.
- Intervention effect Grafting almost did not significantly affect fruit shape, apart from two scion-rootstock combinations.
- Intervention effect Samit grafted on Strong Tosa produced significantly different fruit shapes compared with ungrafted controls in the spring 2013 trial.
- Intervention effect Caramel grafted on Mubyeongjangsoo produced significantly different fruit shapes compared with ungrafted controls in the spring 2013 trial.
- Intervention effect Grafted Shahd and Tamara showed no significant differences in rind brightness, redness and yellowness from the control.
- Intervention effect Rootstocks had a various effect on chlorophyll content and stem diameter of the scion.
- Intervention effect Rootstocks increased fruit number and fruit weight in grafted Tamara scions.
- Intervention effect Grafting had no significant effect on fruit TSS.
- Intervention effect Grafting had positive effects on fruit quality and yield.
- Intervention effect Artificial inoculation with R. solani alone caused more damage to muskmelon seedlings than inoculation with P. aphanidermatum or M. cannonballus alone.
- Intervention effect P. aphanidermatum and M. cannonballus caused less damage to muskmelon seedlings when inoculated singly.
- Intervention effect P. aphanidermatum and M. cannonballus combined with R. solani increased the disease severity index of muskmelon seedlings relative to single inoculation.
