Tomatoes

Tomatoes are grafted by joining the top of one plant (the scion) to the root system of another (the rootstock). The subsequent plant is more vigorous and productive. Several studies have been done over the last 10 years that show the benefits of using grafting for soil disease control in tomato production, but there is not much research that examines the influence of rootstocks when there is no disease in a tomato high tunnel production system.
