Abstract: This research was conducted to determine the compatibility of graft combinations in 0900 Ziraat and Starks Gold Cherry scions and Gisela 5 and SL 64 L clone stocks. Sometimes intensive necrotic layers and insufficient cambial continuity was detected at the 6 months old graft sections at both combination. At the cross and longitudinal sections of 12 months graft of all combinations, development of cambial continuity and new healthy vascular system formed successfully. In addition differences in tissue development quality were observed depending on combinations. However, to find out the reasons of late incompatibility of some combinations, more research on biochemical differences and further field observations of the combinations would be useful.
