“…In Spain, Martínez et al [22] and Durán et al [12] reported [24] and in India [25]. According to our results, the effect of the rootstock on the fruit dimensions of the cultivar is great, especially with Gomera 3, in agreement with Avilan et al [26] and Goncalves et al [27], who indicated the notable influence of the rootstock-scion combinations on the dimensions of the fruit, weight and shape.…”

Fruit yield, growth and leaf-nutrient status of mangoes grafted on two rootstocks in a marginal growing area (South-East Spain).Abstract --Introduction. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) production is rising in various subtropical zones throughout the world. The main polyembryonic rootstocks used by growers in South-East Spain are Gomera 1 and Gomera 3 (from the Canary Islands) and the most commonly used cultivars are Osteen and Keitt (from Florida, US). In this marginal environment for mango growing, it is important to determine the different rootstock qualities in order to optimise fruit production. The objective of our study was to evaluate the performance of mango cv. Osteen and Keitt on the two aforementioned rootstocks, as measured by fruit yield, scion growth and mineral nutrition. Materials and methods. A 3-year study was conducted in a mature mango orchard (14 years old) of a total of 24 trees, where eight were grafted onto cv. Osteen, another eight onto Keitt (four trees with each of the G1-Ost, G3-Ost, G1-Kt and G3-Kt combinations) and eight were ungrafted rootstocks. Fruit yield and pomological characteristics were evaluated by measuring fruit length, width and weight. Height and canopy diameter, as well as the trunk circumference of the tree, were recorded. Throughout the study period, chemical foliar measurements were taken from all trees. Results. Fruit yield in G1-Ost and G3-Kt trees proved significantly higher than that in the others. The fruit weight and length with the G3-Kt combination were greater than those with G1-Kt. Both cultivars grafted on Gomera 3 rootstock had the highest height and canopy volume. The tree-size data confirmed the vigorous feature of the Gomera 3. The N and P foliar concentration was significantly higher for Gomera 3 than for Gomera 1 in both cultivars. The K concentration was higher in G3-Kt leaves than in G1-Kt ones, but higher in G1-Ost than in G3-Ost. The leaf Mn and Cu concentrations with G3-Kt significantly exceeded those of G1-Kt. Conclusion. The height, trunk cross-sectional area, and canopy volume and diameter proved to be the greatest with Gomera 3, reflecting the vigour of this rootstock. The combinations G1-Ost and G3-Kt registered the highest fruit yield, offering promising possibilities for boosting subtropical productivity in mango.

“…The third character of net ratio percentage cleared markedly differences in the two seasons of study. However, Keitt net ratio percentage in Succary rootstock gave a higher percentage than Balady rootstock in both seasons of study .Also, with Naomi and Haydi varieties take the same trend in the two seasons of study with Succary rootstock than Balady one.The present study the fruits of mango in weight and pulp weight in mango of Keitt ,Naomi and Haydi and their rootstocks were agreement with Avilan et al (1997) and Gawankar et al (2010) studied rootstock effect on the fruit size and shape of grafted cultivars Table 4.

“…The fruit shape also was changed as shown in mango variety and the used rootstocks in this respect .The shape of Naomi and Keitt showed increasing in shape as compared in Haydi one. The physical properties in mango fruit and the rootstocks are harmony with Avilan et al (1997) on Edward and Springfels had increasing their fruit size and weight as well as Tomy Atkins and Haden on the Gomera 3 rootstock gave the highest height .Also, Zuazo et al (2005) and Goncalves et al (1998) on shape and weight mangoes Table 5.

“…Statistical differences appeared in the yield of the two combinations, with Gomera-3 bearing fewer fruits of greater weight and width (Table 4). Similarly, Avilan et al (1997b) indicated the notable influence of the rootstock in the dimensions of the fruit, weight and shape, according to the rootstock-scion combinations. The mean fruit weight was lower in the first and second years than in the third, whereas length was greatest the second year.…”

Fruit yield and nutrient concentration of mango (Mangifera indica L.) cultivar 'Osteen' were studied in relation to rootstocks Gomera-1 and Gomera-3 for three years. The results indicated that the Gomera-3 root system had higher nutrient uptake and transport towards the scion. Data from grafted and ungrafted Gomera-1 and Gomera-3 trees proved similar with respect to N, P, and K utilization profile, with post-harvest accumulation and a decline during flowering, P and K concentrations significantly decreasing during fruit growth. These trends were largely the opposite for Ca and Mg. The Fe, Zn, Mn, and Cu concentrations rose during dormancy and fell at flowering. Fruit yield was higher with Gomera-1, while Gomera-3 gave fruit with greater weight and width. Tree height, trunk cross-sectional area, canopy diameter and
