The water deficit is one of the main limiting factors to yield sweet oranges. present study aimed determine alternative rootstocks ‘Rangpur’ lime for ‘Pera’ oranges grown on tropical hardsetting soils with greater potential tolerance deficit. Six citrus scion/rootstock combinations were during eight years in an orchard established Sergipe, Brazil. tree height, number fruits per plant, cumulated...

In this work, seedlings of two citrus rootstocks, the salt-tolerant Cleopatra mandarin (Citrus reshni Hort. ex Tan.) and the salt-sensitive Carrizo citrange (Citrus sinensis [L.] Osb. x Poncirus trifoliata [L.] Raf.) were used to study the relationship between chloride and water uptake. The results indicated that net chloride uptake rates in both genotypes were alike and decreased linearly with...

To determine the effects of salinity on relative growth rate (RGR), net assimilation rate on a leaf weight basis (NAR(w)), leaf weight ratio (LWR), and nutrient uptake and utilization of citrus, we grew four citrus rootstocks (sour orange, Cleopatra mandarin, Carrizo citrange and Citrus macrophylla) in nutrient solutions containing 0, 10, 20, 40 or 80 mM NaCl for 20, 40 or 60 days. For each ele...

In verbal fluency (VF) tests, subjects articulate words in a specified category during a short test period (typically 60 s). Verbal fluency tests are widely used to study language development and to evaluate memory retrieval in neuropsychiatric disorders. Performance is usually measured as the total number of correct words retrieved. Here, we describe the properties of a computerized VF (C-VF) ...

Rootstock is widely used for the cultivation of citrus fruits because it brings resistance or tolerance to diseases environmental constrains and modulates fruit quality. Polyploidization a widespread improvement strategy in citrus. The objective was evaluate effect rootstock ploidy level on composition essential oils. Two trials were conducted, one displaying ‘Navelina’ orange grafted three roo...

Anaçlar, meyve verimi, kalitesi, abiyotik ve biyotik stres koşullarına karşı tolerans/direnç açısından turunçgil üreticiliğinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Turunçgil üretimini sınırlandıran faktörlerden biri de Tylenchulus semipenetrans (Cobb, 1913) (Tylenchida, Tylenchulidae)’dır. Dayanıklı anaçlar, T. semipenetrans’ın mücadelesinde en iyi seçeneklerden birisi olmuştur. Bu çalışmada Adana ili...
