Abstract

The results of a citrus rootstock experiment with sweet orange tops from 1952 to 1977 are reported in this paper. The effects of 19 rootstocks on the growth, fruit production, yield, fruit quality, cold and drought resistance of the cultivar, 'Xianfeng,’ are given. Experimental results showed that for ‘Xianfeng’ orange grown in the Sichuan hilly lands, trifoliate orange is an excellent rootstock. Tugan, Xianggan and Jiangan mandarins are suitable stocks; Tangcheng is a semi-dwarfing stock, and Ichang papeda is adwarfing stock.
