The present investigation entitled Studies on growth of softwood grafts in different custard apple (Annona squamosa L.) cultivars was undertaken at Custard Apple Research Station, Ambajogai during 2016-2017, to evaluation of softwood grafts for growth of different cultivars. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Block Design with 07 treatments viz. Dharur-6, Dharur-3, TP-7, Balanagar, ArkaSahan, Red Sitaphal and Purandar Local at nursery stage with three replications. The results indicated that, the highest length of sprout ( cm) after 120 days of grafting, graft height ( cm), number of leaves graft-1 () after 120 days of grafting, leaf area ( cm2 )after 120 days of grafting, length of roots ( cm) and number of secondary roots ()were recorded in treatment T5 (ArkaSahan). Therefore, treatment T5 (ArkaSahan) have performed better for most of the traits under study. | Studies on growth of softwood grafts in different custard apple (Annona squamosa L.) Cultivars
