Abstract : Local mango stones were germinated and Alphonso scions, defoliated 7 days earlier, were grafted on 7-day-old seedlings (softwood grafting) or on 1-year-old seedlings (hardwood grafting) at 15-day intervals between 1 July and 15 September in a greenhouse or in the open. Softwood grafting on 1 July in the greenhouse gave the highest (70%) success rate followed by 40% for both softwood and hardwood grafting on 1 July in the open.
