  text: Plant grafting, the ancient practice of cutting and joining different plants,
    is gaining popularity as an elegant way to generate chimeras that combine desirable
    traits. Grafting was originally developed in woody species, but the technique
    has evolved over the past century to now encompass a large number of herbaceous
    species. The use of plant grafting in science is accelerating in part due to the
    innovative techniques developed for the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Here,
    we review these developments and discuss the advantages and limitations associated
    with grafting various Arabidopsis tissues at diverse developmental stages.
