Abstract

With the aim of contributing to the technical viability of rubber tree mini-grafting, standard techniques were altered, including modifications on the graft fixation system, irrigation scheme and development of sprout disinfection. These alterations resulted in reduction of time of grafting, maintenance space of grafted plants, and reduction in mortality caused by fungi.
