Abstract

A study was undertaken on growth performance of Nagpur mandarin scion on different rootstocks. Maximum budding success (68.31%), maximum length of scion (17.97 cm), maximum plant height (34.584 cm), maximum leaf area (19.958 cm2), relative water content in leaves (51.744%) and chlorophyll content (0.194 mg/g) were observed in scion budded on rough lemon rootstock. The maximum (37.268 mm) girth of rootstock, length (20.218 cm) of longest primary root, length (7.648 cm) of longest secondary root and number of secondary roots (29.540) were recorded on Rangpur lime rootstock. Rough lemon rootstock showed vigorous effect on Nagpur mandarin as compared to Rangpur lime, sour orange and Carrizo citrange rootstocks.
