| Abstract | ||
| The present research was conducted to evaluate effect of grafting two cultivars of greenhouse cucumber (Royal 24189 and Vilmorin), onto figleaf gourd (Cucurbita ficifolia), on their vegetative growth and yield. The obtained results showed that, yield of Royal 24189 cultivar, was significantly higher than that of Vilmorin cultivar. Grafting had an increasing effect on the both cultivar. Effect of grafting on the total number of fruits in both cultivars was different. While in Royal 24189 cultivar there was no difference between grafted and ungrafted treatments, grafted Vilmorin cultivar treatment produced higher number of fruits than ungrafted treatment. Grafting increased root fresh weight which indicates the effect of rootstock (c. ficifolia) on this parameter. | ||
