1. Scion – is a section of plant stem or branch with 3 or 4 leaf buds joined to a stock in
grafting. The upper part of grafting.
2. Rootstock – is a part of a tree which becomes the root system of the grafted tree.
The lower part of grafting.
1. WHIP GRAFTING (also called splice or tongue grafting) - is one of the oldest
methods of asexual plant propagation known. The end of the scion is cut so as to
leave a tongue - shaped piece of wood and another cut is made in it. The scion is
fitted into the stock which has been prepared and covers the joint with ice bag and
ties it with scotch tape.
2. Side Grafting – insert the scion without cutting off the top of the stock. A slit is
made in the bark of the stock where the scion is inserted.
3. Saddle Grafting – a V – shaped which is made in the scion and the end of the stock
is whittled to a point so that the scion will fit over it like a saddle.
4. Cleft Grafting - One of the simplest and most popular forms of grafting. The stock is
split to form a cleft and wedge – shaped scion is inserted to the cleft.
Among the four types of grafting, the most common and effective way of grafting
mango plant is the cleft grafting.
Application
Today we are going to perform cleft grafting, one of the best and effective method in
propagating mango.
The first thing to do is to choose the root stock and the scion. They must be capable of uniting.
Usually, but not always, closely related plants, such as two mango cultivars, can be grafted
together.
- This mango seedling will be our rootstock, take note of the size (pencil size) we are
going to look a scion from a mother plant.
- It must be of the same size as the stock.
- This is a very good scion from a mother plant that is already bearing fruit.
Second thing to do is to remove the leaves of the scion and the rootstocks.
Third, cut off the top of the rootstock and slit it to form a cleft.
Fifth, insert the scion into the cleft of the rootstock. Make sure that the cambium layers are
compatible or fitted.
Lastly, cover the scion and some part of the rootstock with ice bag and tie the joint tightly with
scotch tape. After a week the scion begins to grow if it is successful but if it is not no bud will
come out.
Generalization
Mango growers are able to produce mango to meet the demands of every Filipino.
They make the Philippines as one of the exporter of mango by the aid of using grafting.
