There are different techniques of grafting, namely, approach grafting, side grafting, splice grafting, saddle grafting, cleft grafting and flat grafting. The advantages of grafting include fast and large-scale production of desirable varieties of fruiting trees and flowering shrubs. Propagation methods such as layering and cutting are usually not successful for growing commercially significant plants but they can be grown easily using grafting. This horticulture technique is also used to overcome the issue of sexual incompatibility between two different species. It can be used for cloning a scion variety to maintain consistency of characters such as color, size and flavors. This book outlines the principles and practices of vegetable grafting. It will also provide interesting topics for research, which interested readers can take up. With the state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Myles Spencer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1639897518\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781639897513\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e States Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/26\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.63d","brand":"Myles Spencer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44245103411455,"sku":"9781639897513","price":152.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_42aa4b78-867b-4943-8656-36fcc82f5a38.jpg?v=1693926145","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/vegetable-grafting-myles-spencer-9781639897513","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
