A block of promising mandarin varieties of commercial importance were planted at Lindcove this week, with Dr. Tracy Kahn and Dr. Mikeal Roose (UC Riverside) in attendance. Additional plantings of the same variety and rootstock combinations will be made elsewhere in the coming weeks, to create multi-location replicated trials that cover the major citrus growing regions of California. This will allow for performance of the varieties to be evaluated and compared, and new imported varieties will be added to the blocks each year as they become available. Lindcove staff perform all of the propagations for these trials in the LREC greenhouses.
