Evaluation of Rootstock Resistance to Fusarium Wilt and Gummy Stem Blight and Effect on Yield and Quality of a Grafted 'Inodorus' Melon (2007, background): “The highest yield of melon, observed in this study from grafted plants, has been earlier reported also on watermelon (Yetisir and Sari, 2003), tomato (Fernandez-Garcia et al., 2004), eggplant (Khah, 2005), and melon (Ruiz and Romero, 1999).”
Eggplant relatives as sources of variation for developing new rootstocks: Effects of grafting on eggplant yield and fruit apparent quality and composition (2011, background): “Rootstock–scion interactions are commonly observed in different crops (Cohen et al., 2002; Leonardi and Giuffrida, 2006; Yetisir and Sari, 2003) and we have observed that rootstock source can have an important effect on eggplant vigour, earliness, yield and fruit quality characteristics.”
Yield, Mineral Composition, Water Relations, and Water Use Efficiency of Grafted Mini-watermelon Plants Under Deficit Irrigation (2008, result): “Those results are consistent with the findings of Salam et al. (2002) and Yetisir and Sari (2003) who found that grafting watermelon onto bottle gourd rootstock enhances production by increasing both mean fruit mass and number.”
