Abstract: The present study was carried out at Regional Horticultural Research Station, ASPEE College of Horticulture and Forestry, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari, Gujarat, India during the year 2018-19. The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design with Factorial concept and repeated thrice with twelve treatment combinations. The experiment comprising with two factors (1) effect of defoliation (6, 9 and 12 days before detachment from mother plant) and (2) effect of storage of scion stick (0,1, 2, and 3 days). The results of present investigation revealed that among different defoliation treatment and storage of scion stick, 12 days prior defoliated and fresh (without storage) scion stick of mango var. Sonpari, individually superior in softwood grafting for all the growth parameters like, incremental girth at union, incremental length of sprouted scion shoot, incremental height of graft and number of shoots. Hence, it can be concluded that 12 days prior defoliated and fresh (without storage) scion stick of mango var. Sonpari used to softwood grafting for better growth of graft.
