Question: Which of the following is a form of repair grafting? (RJ AARO Horticulture 2022)
Options:
Bridge grafting
Double working
Stone grafting
Saddle grafting
✅Explanation:
Repair grafting is used to mend damaged trees, often where a section of the bark has been removed or girdled (damaged all the way around). Bridge grafting is a specific type of repair grafting where scion wood (a piece of a stem with buds) is grafted across the damaged area to bridge the gap and restore the flow of water and nutrients.
