“…C. volkameriana had an intermediate yield efficiency (2.86 kg m -3 ). Similar results were reported by Forner-Giner et al (2003) on 'Navelina' orange, who found that trees on C. volkameriana had similar yield efficiency, but lower yield efficiency on Cleopatra mandarin. In this respect, in a study on 'Marisol' Clementine Bassal (2009) found that all studied rootstocks had a similar yield efficiency.…”

“…× Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.] is currently the most important rootstock used in Spain, employed in over 80% of nursery production (Forner-Giner et al, 2003). This rootstock is CTV (Citrus tristeza virus) tolerant, induces good productivity and fruit quality but is susceptible to salinity and lime-induced chlorosis (Newcomb, 1978).…”

This study analyses the influence of four citrus rootstocks, Citrus macrophylla Wester, Gou Tou Chen (Citrus hybrid), C. volkameriana Ten. & Pasq. and Cleopatra mandarin (C. reshni Hort. ex Tan.), on growth, yield and fruit quality on Lane Late navel orange. Trees were grown in a plot in Alicante (Spain), where the soil is clay loam, with pH 8.5 and electric conductivity in the 1/5 extract: 0.643 mmhos cm–1. Yield was weighed during four harvests, fruit quality was determined in 2007 and 2009. Cleopatra mandarin and Gou Tou Chen were found to be the most invigorating rootstocks for ‘Lane Late’ in heavy and calcareous soil. Trees on C. macrophylla rootstock produced the highest cumulative yield (328.81 kg tree–1), without significant differences compared to trees on Cleopatra mandarin (292.41 kg tree–1). Rootstock significantly affected fruit quality variables. C. macrophylla and C. volkameriana would appear to induce the highest fruit weight and ripening index.

Boron (B) deficiency is widespread and serious in navel orange orchards in southern Jiangxi in China and has been considered an important soil constraint to citrus yield and quality. It has been observed that there was great variation in responses to different B supply levels between ''Newhall'' navel orange grafted on citrange and trifoliate orange. The aim of this work was to compare the different responses of the two scion-rootstock combinations under different B stresses (low and high) in young citrus trees. ''Newhall'' navel orange grafted on citrange or trifoliate orange were incubated in nutrient solution containing different levels of B (0, 0.5 and 5.0 mg L À1 ), of which 0 and 5.0 mg L À1 were considered as deficient and excessive B and 0.5 mg L À1 was considered as an appropriate level of B. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse for 117 days. The results showed that, under low B or high B conditions, better growth performance was observed in ''Newhall'' plants grafted on citrange than in those grafted on trifoliate orange, suggesting that citrangegrafted plants were more tolerant to deficient and excessive B than the plants grafted on trifoliate orange. Boron seemed to be preferentially translocated to the new leaves (leaves from current year), and resulted in normal growth of young leaves under limited B supply. Boron distribution in different plant parts indicated that there was a restriction in translocation of B from roots to scion tissues (stems and leaves of scion) under limited B availability. The relatively high B concentration observed in plants grafted on trifoliate orange suggested higher demand for B than those grafted on citrange. There existed a balance within the B forms to maintain normal growth. Thus, R value (R ¼ semi-bound B/free B) was much higher in citrange-grafted plants than in trifoliate orange-grafted plants under the same B supply level. This explained why citrange-grafted plants had less B but produced relatively more dry mass at cellular level. These results suggested that the utilization efficiency of B of citrange-grafted plants was probably greater than trifoliate orange-grafted plants.

Field observations indicate that boron (B)-toxicity symptoms may occur in citrus plants from inappropriate foliar spraying or overfertilizing with B especially under low-rainfall conditions, where B can accumulate to levels that become toxic to plant growth. Previous work has indicated that different rootstocks can greatly influence the scion's tolerance to B toxicity, however, little is known about the response of different citrus scion-rootstock combinations to excess-B conditions. In the present study, we investigated the effects of excess B on plant growth, gas exchange, B concentration, and distribution of four scion-rootstock combinations, Newhall and Skagg's Bonanza navel orange (Citrus sinensis Osb.) scions grafted on Carrizo citrange (C. sinensis L. Osb. × Poncirus trifoliata L. Raf.) and Trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata L. Raf.) rootstocks. One-year-old plants of the four scion-rootstock combinations were grown for 183 d in sand-perlite (1 : 1, v/v) medium under greenhouse conditions. The plants were irrigated with half-strength Hoagland's nutrient solution containing two B concentrations, 0.25 (control) and 2.50 (excess B) mg L -1 . It was found that, apart from the combination of Newhall grafted on Carrizo citrange, the dry weights in various parts of the other three combinations were reduced by the excess-B treatment. Furthermore, the plants of Skagg's Bonanza grafted on Carrizo citrange showed the highest growth reduction amongst the four scion-rootstock combinations. In most cases, the greater reductions in dry weight were found in roots as compared to the other plant parts under excess-B conditions, indicating that roots were more sensitive to B toxicity than the other tissues. In the case of Newhall plants grafted on Carrizo citrange, the entire plant growth was increased by excess-B treatment. Boron concentrations in all plants parts increased significantly by increasing the B supply in the nutrient solution. Leaves were the dominant sites of B accumulation and showed the greatest increase in B concentration compared to the other plant parts, as B concentration in the nutrient solution increased. Our results indicate that the combination of Newhall grafted on Carrizo citrange was more tolerant to B toxicity, while the combination of Skagg's Bonanza grafted on Carrizo citrange was relatively more sensitive to B toxicity, in comparison with the other scion-rootstock combinations. However, Newhall plants contained more B in leaves and in roots than Skagg's Bonanza plants when they were both grafted on Carrizo citrange, indicating that the mechanism underlying such great differential growth responses of the two scion-rootstock combinations to B toxicity may not be associated with B exclusion from roots or reduced translocation of B to shoots. Furthermore, B distribution in different plant parts implied that the mechanism was also unlikely related to altered distributions of accumulated B in plant tissues. However, inherent ability to tolerate excessive B concentration in plant tissues...
