Grafting compatibility studies of Garcinia mangostana on three other Garcinia species

Chai Tian Bian, . and Chong Swee Teck, . (1993) Grafting compatibility studies of Garcinia mangostana on three other Garcinia species. [Proceedings Paper]

Grafting compatibility studies of mangosteen Garcinia mangostana L. were done on three Garcinia species namely Garcinia atroviridis Garcinia praniana and Garcinia hombroniana. Various degrees of incompatibility were observed for the three species studied. Total incompatibility were observed for Garcinia atroviridis and Garcinia praniana when used as rootstocks for mangosteen. As for Garcinia hombroniana partial compatibility with Garcinia mangostana was observed. Cleft grafting is the technique used for these studies. Various degrees of incompatibility were also observed in reciprocal grafts for the above three species. Studies also showed that grafting on their own rootstocks for these four Garcinia species have no incompatibility problem. In view of the slow growing nature of mangosteen the search for compatible and vigorous rootstock amongst Garcinia species for mangosteen propagation merits further investigations

Abstract

Grafting compatibility studies of mangosteen Garcinia mangostana L. were done on three Garcinia species namely Garcinia atroviridis Garcinia praniana and Garcinia hombroniana. Various degrees of incompatibility were observed for the three species studied. Total incompatibility were observed for Garcinia atroviridis and Garcinia praniana when used as rootstocks for mangosteen. As for Garcinia hombroniana partial compatibility with Garcinia mangostana was observed. Cleft grafting is the technique used for these studies. Various degrees of incompatibility were also observed in reciprocal grafts for the above three species. Studies also showed that grafting on their own rootstocks for these four Garcinia species have no incompatibility problem. In view of the slow growing nature of mangosteen the search for compatible and vigorous rootstock amongst Garcinia species for mangosteen propagation merits further investigations
