Brief Description
Description : | Rootstocks were standardized for Alphonso mango. Polyembryonic rootstock Vellaikulumban imparted dwarfing to Alphonso scion compared to vigorous rootstocks Olour, Bappakai and Muvandan. The cumulative fruit yields were maximum on vigorous rootstocks whereas, fruit yield / unit canopy volume maximum with dwarfing Vellaikulumban rootstock. |
