Abstract:Branch-grafting is one of main method of seedling grafting that operates usually in spring. During branch grafting, cut a number of scions on a branch cutting generally in order to save scions; after grafting, it is easy to lose water and wither due to the top scion cut exposing in the open air, decrease vital force which influences survival of the grafting.A study on keeping moistureof the scion has been carried out in the seedling of fruit and greenery tree started from the spring of 2000. The result showed that thetop scion-cut covered withplastic decreased the water evaporation by 8%~10% and the average survival rate of the grafting reached 96.4%.
