Abstract:
In order to explore the grafting and seedling raising technology for non-stinging
Zanthoxylum japonica,experimental researches were conduced on the grafting method and the seedling raising. The results showed that (1) The best time for grafting of
Z.japonica in spring was from late February to mid-March. The best grafting method was single-bud cutting, with an average survival rate of 85.7% and a maximum of 94.1%. (2) The best time for grafting of
Z.japonica in summer was from the end of June to the beginning of July. The best grafting method was the block grafting, with an average of 51.9% and the highest rate of 77.6%. (3) Four varieties of
Z. armatum DC and
Z.japonica had high grafting affinity. The average survival rate, average high growth and average ground diameter growth of grafted seedlings were the highest with
Z.armatum as rootstocks.
