This chapter describes in detail the available germplasm resources for vegetable rootstock breeding. It discusses the genetic diversity in the Cucurbitaceae and Solanaceae, and describes the gene bank collections of these families. Current usage of genetic material in rootstocks (rootstocks for production of cucurbits and solanaceous crops) is also discussed. The germplasm collections and the grafting in other plant families, includingCynaraandPhaseolus, are also described. It is concluded that the range of rootstock cultivars currently in widespread commercial use is extremely narrow and is much more limited than the diversity of scion cultivars.
