The study investigated the graft success rates of Early Queen and Pioneer plum varieties grafted on selected and control
rootstocks. The graft success rates were determined to be 84.00% for Early Queen and 82.78% for Pioneer, with the
difference between the two varieties being statistically significant at the 5% level. Among the rootstocks, a more
pronounced level of statistical variation was observed in graft success rates (significant at the 1% level), with rates
ranging from 72.00% to 94.66%. The highest graft success rates were recorded for eight rootstocks within the same
statistical group, with KL-38 (94.66%), KL-60 (94.16%), and GN-22 (93.16%) ranking as the top three performers. In
contrast, the lowest graft success rates were identified in eight hybrid rootstocks, with FS-197 (72.00%), FS-185
(72.66%), and KL-4 (73.66%) exhibiting the poorest performance. The average graft success rate across all rootstocks
was 83.39%, reflecting a high overall success rate. The study revealed that rootstock/scion interactions exhibited
statistically significant differences at the 1% level, although the distribution of these differences was not excessively
broad. Graft success rates spanned from 71.66% to 95.66%, indicating generally high levels of success across the
combinations. Twelve rootstock/scion combinations, including control rootstocks, produced successful results within the
same statistical group. The top three combinations with the highest graft success rates were KL-38/Early Queen (95.66%),
KL-60/Early Queen (95.33%), and KL-59/Early Queen (95.00%). Conversely, the lowest graft success rates were
observed in FS-185/Early Queen (71.66%), FS-197/Pioneer (72.00%), and FS-197/Early Queen (72.00%). Overall, the
graft success rates across the 19 rootstock combinations were statistically comparable, with no extreme variations
observed even among the lower-performing combinations. Graft success rates consistently exceeded 70% across the entire
distribution, underscoring the significant impact of rootstock/scion interactions on graft success.
