Innovation of “Brinjaloo” at IUBAT Through Grafting Brinjal on Potato

Mahadi Hasan

Brinjal (Solanummelongena) and potato (Solanumtuberosum) are the members of the family Solanaceae. They are the major winter vegetables of Bangladesh. Most of the vegetable plants of the same family, such as brinjal and potato plants can be grafted to create one plant named as “Brinjaloo”. The upper part of the plant becomes the top of the plant would produce brinjals, while the lower or underground part would produce tubers i.e., potatoes.
