ABSTRACT
Evaluation of Sathgudi Sweet orange budded on different rootstock strains of Rangapur lime, Rough lemon and Cleopatra mandarin was conducted from 2001- 2008 at Arid Horticulture Research Station, Kondamallepally, Nalgonda district of Andhra Pradesh. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of rootstock genotypes on performance of sathgudi sweet orange (Citrus sinensis Osbeck). Ten rootstock strains were evaluated by measuring cumulative yield for seven years with Rangapur lime (4 strains), Rough Lemon (5 strains) and Cleopatra Mandarin (1 strain) rootstocks. Among the different rootstock strains used, the sathgudi sweet orange budded on Rangapur lime Brazil strain has recorded maximum cumulative yield of 538 kg/tree whereas lowest cumulative yield of 237 kg/tree was recorded in sweet orange budded on Aboher strain of Rough Lemon.
