Five types of rootstock predominate in temperate climates where cold or freezing weather is not probable, especially Florida and southern Europe: A double graft union of diamante citron upon sour orange rootstock. Sour orange: the only rootstock that truly is an orange (the Citrus × aurantium or bitter orange). It is vigorous and highly ...
One of the newest rootstocks of the "CG" series, only released commercially in 2004, is CG5202(G.202) which adds resistance to the woolly apple aphid, and when combined with highly resistant cultivars such as "Liberty" it is showing great potential. [4] [5] Rootstocks based on Siberian Crab apple are being used in colder areas for more cold ...
Cleft grafting occurs when a V-shape is cut into the rootstock and a complementing wedge-shaped scion is inserted. The graft is then held with a small clip until healing occurs. [11] Approach grafting involves notching opposing sides of the stems of the rootstock and scion, and then using a clip to hold the stems together while they fuse.
Bud grafting (also called chip budding or shield budding) uses a bud instead of a twig. [8] Grafting roses is the most common example of bud grafting. In this method a bud is removed from the parent plant, and the base of the bud is inserted beneath the bark of the stem of the stock plant from which the rest of the shoot has been cut.
The most common ways to perform field grafting are the Chip Bud method, the T Bud method, the Cleft Graft and the Bark Graft. [5] [8] The Chip Bud Method is performed shortly after the grape vine is planted, giving the rootstock enough time to become active but the bud of the grape vine is still inactive. It is performed by cutting two small ...
AxR1 is a grape rootstock once widely used in California viticulture.Its name is an abbreviation for "Aramon Rupestris Ganzin No. 1", which in turn is based on its parentage: a cross (made by a French grape hybridizer named Ganzin) between Aramon, a Vitis vinifera cultivar, and Rupestris, an American grape species, Vitis rupestris—also used on its own as rootstock, "Rupestris St. George" or ...

A bridge graft is a grafting technique used to re-establish the supply of nutrients to the rootstock of a woody perennial when the full thickness of the bark has been removed from part of the trunk. Damage to the innermost layer of the bark, called the phloem , can interrupt the transport of photosynthesized sugars throughout the tree.
