In vitro approach was adopted to study the effect of salinity on survival and growth of rough lemon (Citrus jambhiri Lush.) seeds. North-West (Punjab) part of India has been facing a major problem of soil salinity for citrus orchards. Therefore, it is logical to study the salinity tolerance of common citrus rootstock, rough lemon (Citrus jambhiri Lush.), grown in the region. The seeds were trea...

Previous work has suggested that peach scion cultivar exerts a significant influence on incidence of peach tree short life (PTSL) in trees budded onto Nemaguard and Flordaguard seedling peach rootstocks. If this influence is consistent across a range of rootstocks then the influence of scion cultivar might offer a new tool for the management of PTSL. Growers could minimize losses on those sites...

The study was conducted in the Lath-house/Department of Horticulture and landscape design/College Agriculture Forestry/University Mosul on budded local lemon (Citrus limon L.) at one year old, by using Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with two factors, three replications four transplants for each experimental unit, First factor rootstock(soure orange Citrumelo swingle), second inoculatio...

Abstract The use of rootstocks provides choices to growers increase fruit quality and yield, obtain high-density planting, avoid juvenility, control tree size. choice rootstock for a citrus orchard was an important consideration. aim the study evaluate effects on leaf mineral composition physiology commercial cultivars (‘ Pontianak ’ tangerine, ‘ Pamindo pamelo Montaji lemon). For this purpose,...

In a host-range study carried out under greenhouse conditions, a total of 37 commercial fruit tree, grape, and citrus rootstocks were tested for their reaction to a population of the lesion nematode, Pratylenchus vulnus, in Spain. Twenty-five rootstocks had a Pf/Pi > 1.5. These included almond (Desmayo Rojo, 1143), apple (EM-9, EM-106), avocado (Hass), cherry (Santa Lucia 64, Camil, M x M 14, M...

the effect of four citrus rootstocks {sour orange (citrus aurantium), bakraeii (c. reticulata × c. limetta, mexican lime (c. aurantifolia) and volkamerlemon (c. volkameriana)} were evaluated on sweet lime leaf chlorophyll content and mineral concentrations (n, p, k, ca, na, mg, fe, zn, mn, cl, cu, and b) in a completely randomized design of four replications. budded sweet lime on the above root...

as regards citrus growing in sub-tropical and tropical regions that often expose drought, in order to investigation of some citrus seedlings response to drought this research was done in factorial experiment based on randomized completely design with three replication under glasshouse conditions. first factor were five citrus rootstocks and second factor included two treatment of irrigation (op...

citrus fruits contain numerous nutrients and secondary metabolites including sugars, vitamin c, flavonoids and phenols which have high antioxidant activity and nutritional value. factors such as cultivar, type of stock and fruit position affect the amount of these compounds. hence in this study the amount of sucrose, glucose, total sugar, vitamin c, flavonoids and phenols in pulp, mesocarp and ...
