TI - High and low budding of citrus: Malformation of bud union of citrus trees on Sampson tangelo, and Cleopatra mandarin stock seems related to budding height JF - California Agriculture JO - Calif Agr Y1 - 1957/11/01 VL - 11 IS - 11 SP - 5 EP - 15 PB - University of California Agriculture and Nature Resources SN - 0008-0845 UR - http://www.ucanr.edu/sites/calagjournal/archive/?article=ca.v011n11p5 AB - Malformed bud unions on young citrus trees—particularly lemons—budded upon Cleopatra mandarin and Sampson tangelo rootstocks vary in relation to the height of the budding. The reasons for the variations in bud union reaction with height of budding are not known but approximately 8? seems to be the critical height.
