Widespread decline of citrus orchards in Western Australia associated with Phytophthora root rot, citrus eelworm and other factors has prompted investigation of various citrus rootstocks.
Trifoliata and Troyer citrange are most suitable for replant areas.
Wider use of these and of other stocks such as sweet orange is advocated for new plantings.
