Cultivation
Capsicum annuum L.
Pepper grafting is an agrotechnical method of joining herbaceous stems to increase resistance to soil-borne pathogens and environmental stress factors, whereas budding is not used for this crop.
In the reference 43 varieties crop Bell pepper, where this is mentioned in the description.
For pepper, methods of joining herbaceous plants are used, such as splice grafting or cleft grafting at early seedling stages. The process requires securing the graft union with special clips after cutting the stems at an angle below the first true leaves. Strict adherence to tool sterility and preventing contact between the scion and the soil is crucial to protect against secondary infection.
The primary goal of pepper grafting is not to change varietal characteristics, but to increase plant vigor. Grafting helps minimize the risks of Fusarium wilt and bacterial wilt, and also improves the variety's adaptation to soil salinity, drought, or waterlogging. Hybrids with high disease resistance are typically chosen as rootstocks.
Pepper grafting is considered a complex and costly process, mainly justifiable for protected ground conditions or under high disease pressure. With proper execution, the quality and characteristics of the fruits remain unchanged, while the agrotechnical procedure itself provides the plant with additional growth vigor and resistance to adverse conditions.
