Abstract

About 5,000 young citrus trees—less than six years old—in the major citrus areas of California have been ruined or killed by 2,4-D within the past 10 years. Most of the injured trees were lemons, but extensive damage to young orange and grapefruit trees has been observed. Severe damage has been found on only a few trees more than six years old.
