Pepper rootstock

Capsicum annuum L.

The use of rootstocks for pepper is aimed at protecting against soil-borne pathogens and increasing the plant's stress resistance to low soil temperatures and salinity.

In the reference 46 varieties crop Bell pepper, where this is mentioned in the description.

Grafting pepper ensures the development of a more vigorous root system, which contributes to better plant nutrition, an extended fruiting period, and higher overall yields. This technological practice allows for a reduction in pesticide use due to the resistance of rootstocks to soil diseases and nematodes, and also improves plant growth under hydroponic conditions.

The effectiveness of the method depends on the selection of compatible pairs. For this crop, the use of specialized rootstocks is preferred, as they provide optimal growth vigor and adaptation to stress factors, unlike using tomatoes as a rootstock for pepper.
