Citrus Rootstocks : An Evaluation For New And Replant Areas, Department Of Agriculture, Western Australia

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

Trifoliata and Troyer citrange are most suitable for replant areas.

Wider use of these and of other stocks such as sweet orange is advocated for new plantings.
