Citrus Tristeza virus (CTV) is the most destructive disease of the citrus industry. Hence, a study was conducted to identify which among the different high value citrus seedlings at the scion grove of DMMMSU-NLUC, the most tolerant to CTV is deem necessary. This study was conducted employing the Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three replications.
