1 COST Action FA1204 database: A simple and effective tool for vegetable growers and the scientific community T. Celli, Y. Rouphael, G. Ntatsi, A. Fiorillo, G. Colla Final Conference Pula, Croatia, 20 th September 2016

2 Publications vegetable graftinga trend in tomato Key words: «tomato» «grafting» «rootstock» 2

3 Why do we need a database? Scattered information in technical and scientific journals, abstracts of proceedings Increased interest of key stakeholders (academic, farmers, farm advisors, seed companies, nurseries, policy makers) to scientific knowledge and technical information Make information easily available to different stakeholders 3

4 Structure of the database- How was it made? Excel file Excel spreadsheet (each spreadsheet=crop) Source of information: key words: «Crop name», Grafting, Rootstock Years considered ( ) Information: Title, Author(s), Journal citation, growing system, scion, rootstock, experimental treatments, effects of grafting combinations on agronomic response of crop and fruit quality. 4

5 Organization of database: classification of the works Disease tolerance Abiotic stress tolerance Compatibility issues Sources of rootstocks (New genetic materials) Grafting technique Vigour effects on scion Yield effects Quality effects 5

19 Conclusions Simple and easy to use tool for selection of grafting combinations suitable for a specific growing environment. Allows a quick identification of research needs for different crops and categories. It is far to be completed: abstracts, proceeding papers, and other minor scientific journal have not be considered. Implementation of Design and upload in the COST website is needed.
