| 047006000 | GRAFTING | 10 |
| 20090277081 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CULTIVATING A TREE - An apparatus and method cultivate trees by preventing freezing and frost damage and inhibiting root stalk sprouts. The apparatus is a frustoconical cover that rests on the ground to cover the root ball of the tree. The stalk and leaves are extended from a hole in the frustum. Water such as mist is injectable within the cover to prevent cold and frost damage. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20110005127 | TECHNIQUE FOR ENGRAFTING PLANTS AND A TOOL FOR IMPLEMENTING THE TECHNIQUE - Material is mechanically removed from the cut-out extremities of the graft holder ( | 01-13-2011 |
| 20110126453 | NEW METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SOMATIC EMBRYOS FROM EUPHORBIA PULCHERRIMA PLANT TISSUE - The present invention relates to a method for the production of somatic embryos from poinsettia ( | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110154730 | GRAFTED SEEDLING PRODUCING DEVICE - A grafted seedling producing device including a stock seedling holding unit that holds and conveys a stock seedling, a stock cutting unit that cuts the stock seedling held by the stock seedling holding unit, and a joining unit that joins the stock seedling conveyed by the stock seedling holding unit and a scion seedling, the stock cutting unit including a stock cutter unit that includes a stock blade for cutting the stock seedling by a predetermined stock cutter trajectory, the stock seedling holding unit holding an embryonic stem of a seedling for grafting at a predetermined position on the stock cutter trajectory in a vertical posture, the grafted seedling producing device includes: a supporting unit configured to retract the stock cutter unit from an advance position for cutting in proximity to the stock seedling holding unit; and a stock pressing member that presses and fixes a portion ahead of a cutting position of the embryonic stem from a seedling holding position against the stock seedling holding unit side at the advance position. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20120073190 | A CUTTING TOOL AND METHOD OF CUTTING - A whip and tongue grafting device may include a slanting cut tool including a guide to position stem for receiving a slanting cut, and including a cutting device for making the slanting cut. The device may also include a whip cut tool including a guide to position a stem for receiving a tongue cut, and including a cutting device for making the whip cut. The device may also include other guides for producing other required cuts to the stem. | 03-29-2012 |
| 20140053460 | Graft element, system and method for joining plant stem sections using such graft element, and system and method for preparing such graft element - The present invention relates to a graft element for joining together plant stem sections. The graft element is made of a resilient material and takes the form of a tubular structure having a hollow center that extends in a longitudinal direction so as to form a cylinder. The graft element further comprises a side opening along its length and two elongated members. The side opening is connected to the hollow center over the entire length of the graft element. The two elongated members are located at opposite sides of the side opening and oriented substantially parallel thereto. The elongated members are provided with cutouts for receiving a gripping unit. The invention further relates to systems and methods for joining plant stem sections using the graft element. Finally, the invention relates to a system and a method for preparing the graft element. | 02-27-2014 |
| 20140109471 | Plant Graft Production Line - A plant graft production line for automatically grafting a rootstock and a scion si disclosed. The aforesaid plant graft production line comprises (a) a closed-loop conveyor; (b) at least one grafting assembly arranged for transporting along said conveyor; the assembly further comprises a rootstock holder for holding the rootstock and a scion holder for holding the scion; the holders arranged for at least partially superimposing said rootstock and scion; (c) stationary cutting mechanism for cutting exposed rootstock surface; (d) a stationary cutting mechanism for cutting a exposed scion surface to be; (e) stationary clipping mechanism for clipping the superimposed rootstock and scion together. It is a core feature of the invention to provide the rootstock holder arranged so as to provide a curvilinear plane along which said rootstock is conformed thereby presenting a curved cutting target for the cutting mechanism. | 04-24-2014 |
| 20140109472 | PATHOGEN RESISTANT CITRUS COMPOSITIONS, ORGANISMS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS - The present disclosure relates, according to some embodiments, to pathogen resistant citrus compositions, organisms, systems, and methods. For example, a composition may comprise a peptide (e.g., a defensin peptide) and/or a nucleic acid (e.g., a defensin nucleic acid). A pathogen resistant citrus plant may comprise, in some embodiments, a defensin peptide and/or an expressable nucleic acid encoding a defensin peptide. | 04-24-2014 |
| 20140157661 | AGENT FOR TREATING GRAPE VINE WOOD - The invention relates to the use of neutral anolyte for decontaminating grape vine wood. | 06-12-2014 |
| 20150366142 | A CUTTING TOOL AND A METHOD FOR PLANTS GRAFTING - Grafting tools for use in agriculture, nurseries, or horticulture, that ensure the sterile cutting of the plant during grafting operations and that prevent the spreading of diseases through the blade, are described. | 12-24-2015 |
