Propagation experiments were carried out with Chrysophyllum lanceolatum (Bl.) DC. as a new rootstock for Achras zapota L. at Tropical Botanic Garden & Research Institute (TBGRI), Thiruvananthapuram, India. For four consecutive years, maximum percentage of grafting success was obtained during April to May. Grafted plants were grown in different agro-climatic conditions of the Kerala State and had good fruit quality and yield. C. lanceolatum proved one of the best rootstocks for Sapota. Taxonomically, C. L. Blume has earlier circumscribed C. lanceolatum (Bl.) DC. as Nycterisition lanceolatum Bl. from the Java Island. C. roxburghii G. Don. and C. acuminatum Roxb. are also other popular synonyms of the species.
