Effects of Different Rootstocks on Yield,Quality and Mineral Elements Absorption in Zaojia 84-24 Watermelon
In order to understand the influence of different rootstocks on watermelon yield,quality and ab-sorption of mineral element,this experiment used pumpkin('Jingxinzhen No.2'),gourd('Qinkang-shuigua'),and wild watermelon('Yongshi')as rootstocks,grafted with Zaojia 84-24 watermelon.Morpho-logical indicators,yield,quality indicators,and absorption of nitrogen,phosphorus,potassium,calcium,and magnesium in watermelon were measured and analyzed.The results showed that all three rootstocks increased the fruit weight compared with the self-rooted watermelon,with the largest fruit weight of watermelon grafted onto'Jingxinzhen-2',being 3.75 kg.Rootstocks had no significant effects on the soluble solids content.However,compared with the self-root watermelon,the vitamin C content of grafted watermelon decreased,while the lyco-pene content increased.Watermelon grafted on the"Qinkangshuigua"rootstock exhibited the highest citrulline content.'Jingxinzhen-2'rootstock increased the absorption of nitrogen,phosphorus,potassium,calcium and magnesium.'Qinkangshuigua'rootstock increased the absorption of nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium,while the'Yongshi'rootstock increased the absorption of nitrogen,potassium,calcium and magnesium.Therefore,"Jingx-inzhen No.2"can be recommended for watermelon cultivation.
