Abstract
Pumpkin Shengzhen 1 was used as rootstock for melon Yumeiren in this experiment,and the own-root plant was used as control.The effect of grafting on photosynthesis characteristics,yield and sugar content in melon were studied.The results showed that grafting had positive effect on expanding leaf area,increasing branch growth and promoting dry weight accumulation in various organs during melon development.However,the effect of grafting on chlorophyll content in leaves was small.The effects of grafting on the net photosynthetic rate of functional leaf,transpiration rate,stomatal conductance and intercellular CO_2 concentration were also small in each developing stage.Therefore,the photosynthetic rate of grafting plant increased mainly due to expanding total leaf area of melon plant.In addition,the average single fruit weight and unit area yield of grafted melon were higher than those of the own-root melon.However,the inwall and the central soluble sugar content of grafted melons was lower than that of the own-root melon.
