RESUMOPoncirus trifoliata é um porta-enxerto passível de reduzir o porte de algumas copas de citros e permitir maiores densidades de plantio em condições específicas de clima e manejo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o P. trifoliata como porta-enxerto para a laranjeira 'Lima' em sistema de cultivo irrigado, nas condições climáticas do Noroeste Fluminense. O porta-enxerto limoeiro 'Cravo' foi adotado como padrão de comparação. O experimento foi conduzido em delineamento inteiramente casualizado cujos tratamentos foram constituídos pelos porta-enxertos e épocas de avaliação. O tamanho da copa e a produção de frutos por planta foram avaliados em duas safras. A qualidade dos frutos foi avaliada em quatro épocas, durante a safra de 2011. O volume de copa da 'Lima' enxertada sobre o 'Trifoliata' é reduzido em 56%, os frutos têm menor tamanho e maiores teores de sólidos solúveis. A eficiência produtiva é 39% superior à das plantas enxertadas sobre o 'Cravo'. Esta combinação copa/porta-enxerto pode permitir plantios mais adensados em sistema de plantio irrigado.Palavras-chave: plantios adensados, Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf., porta-enxerto semi-nanicante Fruit quality and yield efficiency of 'Lima' orange trees budded onto 'Trifoliate' rootstock, under irrigation conditions ABSTRACTPoncirus trifoliate is a rootstock that reduces size of some citrus varieties and may allow high-density plantings under specifics environments and management. The aim of this work was to evaluate P. trifoliata as rootstock for sweet orange 'Lima' when grown under irrigation in environmental conditions on Brazil, in the Northwest of State of Rio de Janeiro. 'Lima' orange budded on 'Rangpur' lime (Citrus limonia Osbeck) was used as control. The experiment was carried out under completely randomized experimental design, which treatments were constituted by rootstocks varieties and evaluations times. Plant size, fruit yield, and yield efficiency were evaluated in two harvests seasons. Fruit quality was assessed at four times during 2011 harvest. Canopy volume of 'Lima' onto Trifoliate reduces over 56% and fruits were smaller in size but they have greatest values of total solid soluble. Yield efficiency in these plants was 39% higher in contrast with plants grafted on 'Rangpur' lime. This scion/rootstock combination may allow high-density plantings in irrigated system.
