Abstract

Different budding techniques were practiced to propagate Santa Maria pear on wild pear (Pyrus pashia) rootstock under the agro-climatic conditions of Mansehra, at Agricultural Research Station Baffa Mansehra during 2015. Four different budding techniques i.e. T-budding, Patch budding, Chip budding and Ring budding were practiced to investigate their effects on different growth parameters after 60 days i.e., Days to sprouting, Bud take success, Budding growth, Stem thickness, No. of leaves and No. of branches. Minimum days to sprouting (26.3) and maximum bud take success (69.3%), budding growth (14.4 cm), stem thickness (0.4 cm), No of leaves (10.3) and No of branches (2.2) were observed in plants budded by T-budding, while maximum days to sprouting (30.9) and minimum bud take success (40.3%), budding growth (9.2 cm), stem thickness (0.1 cm), No. of leaves (5.4) and No. of branches (1.3) were observed in plants budded by Chip budding. T-budding showed significant results among all of the parameters studied. It can be concluded that T-budding is a better option for better bud take success, days to sprouting, budding growth, stem thickness, No. of leaves and No. of branches.
