Effects of Related and Unrelated Graft Partners in Slash Pine (Pinus elliottii Engelm.)

The paper presents the results of a study designed to test the effect of degree of relationship between scion and rootstock on the survival, height growth and incompatibility of slash pine grafts. After four years, no significant gain was made in survival, height growth or reduction of incompatibility by using rootstocks that were related to the scions to which they were grafted.
