Abstract
Abstract Four-year-old nucellar ‘CES No. 3 Redblush’ grapefruit trees on 16 rootstocks, including 8 hybrids, growing on a calcareous soil of pH 8.4 differed in tree size and leaf color. Trees on sour orange, ‘Kunenbo’ mandarin and ‘Cleopatra’ mandarin rootstock were considerably larger and their foliage was greener than those of trees on other rootstocks. Trees on ‘Changsha’ mandarin, C61-250 (‘Shekwasha’ mandarin × ‘Koethen’ sweet orange) also were chlorosis-resistant but they were smaller than the trees on the other tolerant rootstocks. Rootstock effects on 10 mineral element levels in the leaves are discussed.
