Abstract : Combinations among mango scions (cultivars Haden, Tommy Atkins and Edward), rootstocks (cultivars Currucai, Manzana, Pico'e loro, Perú, Julie 2 and Perú 2) and interstocks (cultivars Camphor, Rosa, Julie and Tetenene manzana) were evaluated in Venezuela. Preliminary results after 40 months indicated that significantly small stock/interstock/scion combinations were Julie 2/Camphor/Tommy Atkins, Manzana/Camphor/Tommy Atkins, Perú/Tetenene manzana/Haden and Julie 2/Camphor/Haden. No significant variations were exhibited by the cultivar Edward.
