Embodiment 1

[0074] The present embodiment provides a kind of dwarf potted method of cocoa tree, comprises the following steps:

[0075] Choose a gentle slope or flat land close to the water source, calm wind, humidity, and good drainage as the cocoa rootstock nursery, and build a shade shed with a height of 2.0-2.5m on the nursery, with a shading degree of 40-50%. Lay the nursery flat with a weed-proof net, and then place the seedling bags filled with loam neatly on the seedbed. The diameter and height of the seedling bags are 14cm×30cm. At the end of September 2016, the mature cocoa fruits on the dwarf rootstock TAS-DR15 were harvested, cut open and washed off the pulp attached to the seeds, and the well-developed, full, and oval seeds were selected, and the volume concentration was more than 0.3-0.5%. Soak and sterilize the seeds in the betazolin solution for 10-20 minutes, rinse with clean water, spread the rootstock seeds on the sand bed and cover with a thin layer of sand, and pour w...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of grafting, in particular to a potting method for a cocoa tree. The potting method comprises the steps of rootstock cultivation, grafting breeding, plant potting and management and shaping and pruning; the rootstock cultivation comprises the step of planting a rootstock seedling in a seedling raising bag; the grafting breeding comprises the following steps: collecting annual semi-lignified fan-shaped branches to make scions, and grafting the scions on rootstock by adopting a top grafting method; wherein the height of the rootstock is 30-40 cm; and the plant potting and management comprises the steps as follows: planting the cocoa plant subjected to grafting breeding in a pot filled with nutrient soil, and pouring root fixing water; and performing water and fertilizer management and pest control after field planting. According to the method, the grafting height is increased from 10-20 cm to about 30-40 cm, the grafted plant with a high proportion can bear cocoa fruits on an original rootstock, phenotypes such as fruit shapes and fruit colors are obviously different from those of cocoa fruits borne on the scions, two kinds of fruits with different shapes or colors can be borne on one trunk, and the ornamental value of the potted cocoa tree is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of grafting, in particular to a method for potting cocoa trees. Background technique [0002] The cocoa tree is a perennial tree of the genus Theobroma in the Malvaceae family. It is also known as the world's three major beverage crops along with tea and coffee, and is known as the "mother of chocolate"; cocoa seeds, also known as cocoa beans, are rich in flavonoids , theobromine and a variety of amino acids and trace elements needed by the human body have good health effects on preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases, delaying aging, and promoting intellectual development. [0003] In addition, the cocoa tree has the phenomenon of "old stems blooming and bearing fruit", which is highly ornamental. The chocolate and horticultural industries at home and abroad have favored cocoa, not only the development and utilization of cocoa in customized chocolate products and health food. The facility planting ...
