About this person

He is best remembered for his contested claim that grafting could produce lasting, heritable change in plants, a position he reached in the same years as the Russian breeder Ivan Michurin and that links his name to the long debate over so-called graft hybrids. He has sometimes been described as a founder of scientific horticulture.
