Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingWhy are proline measurements insufficient to name a stress-tolerant mango rootstock?
Proline is a physiological measurement used in stress and graft-combination studies, but a concentration alone does not establish useful survival, recovery, or productivity. Interpret it with the actual exposure and whole-plant outcomes. A large biochemical response may identify material worth investigating without proving an orchard advantage. Rootstock recommendations still need performance beneath the intended scion and management.
