A field experiment was conducted at Olericulture Division, Horticulture Research Center (HRC) of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Gazipur, Bangladesh, during the period from October 2017 to April 2018 to study the effect of grafting compatibility of different rootstock with different scion for eggplant. The 24 grafted treatments (6 scion × 4 rootstock) and 6 non grafted treatments of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) showed significant variation in grafted and non-grafted different characters studies. Thirty treatment combinations showed significant better yield, fruit and shoot borer infestation. Among the thirty treatment combinations grafted on different rootstock like S. sisymbriifolium, BARI Begun 8, BARI Begun 10 and EgN 203 with several scions viz., BARI Begun 4, BARI Begun 9, BARI Hybrid Begun 2, BARI Hybrid Begun 4, BARI Bt Begun 2, BARI Bt Begun 4.
