摘要
The cause of the low survival rate of sweet pepper plants after grafting was investigated and compared with findings of eggplant and tomato plants, and the promotive effect of ascorbic acid (AA) was determined. Sweet pepper plants formed less callus at the cut surfaces of the stem compared to eggplant and tomato plants. Foliar application with 100 mg L(-1) AA promoted callus formation at the cut surfaces of the scion stems and improved the survival rate after grafting. We suggest that the low survival rate of grafted sweet pepper plants is caused by their low rate of callus formation, and that AA can be used to promote graft-take through the acceleration of callus formation at the cut surfaces of the stems.
