Abstract: A field experiment entitled "Effect of Media and Age of Rootstock on Epicotyl Grafting of Mango (Mangifera indica L.) cv. Amrapali" was conducted at the Agriculture Research Station, ARSS, Banswara in June, 2016-17. The result revealed that effect of growing media were statistically significant on following parameters, minimum days taken for seed germination, maximum germination per cent and survival per cent of rootstock, maximum stock length and girth, minimum time to shoot sprouting of graft, highest success per cent of graft union at 30 and 60 DAG, minimum mortality per cent of graft union at 30, 60 and 90 DAG and maximum survival per cent at the end of experiment, maximum shoot length, total number of leaves, scion height at 30, 60 and 90 DAG, maximum scion height and girth at 30, 60 and 90 DAG, maximum length and girth of tap root, maximum fresh and dry weight of tap root were recorded in M5 [soil + FYM + sand (1:1:1)]. In second factor the age of rootstock at different levels were statistically significantly on following parameters, maximum stock length and stock girth at D3 (16 days after germination) while, Minimum time taken for shoot sprouting was recorded in D1 (8 days after grafting) and highest success per cent, lowest mortality per cent at 30 and 60 DAG and maximum survival percent of graft union at the end of experiment was recorded in D2 (12 days after grafting), Maximum shoot length, total number of leaves at 30, 60 and 90 DAG recorded in age of rootstock of D2 (12days after germination), scion height and girth at 30, 60 and 90 DAG were recorded in age of rootstock of D2 (12 days after germination), maximum length, girth, fresh weight and dry weight of tap root were recorded under D2 (12 days after germination).
