Abstract
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The main objective of this study was to establish biochemical or physiological criteria for predicting relative vegetative vigour of citrus rootstock cultivars. Such criteria would enable the citrus industry to determine at an early stage in the life cycle of a plant where a certain rootstock would fit into the whole range of citrus rootstocks relative to vegetative vigour.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie was om biochemiese of fisiologiese maatstawwe te vind waarvolgens die relatiewe mate van groeikragtheid van sitrus onderstamme voorspel kan word. Sulke maatstawwe sal die sitrusbedryf in staat stel om reeds op 'n vroeë stadium in die plant se leeftyd te voorspel waar 'n sekere onderstam in die reeks van sitrus onderstamme sal inpas ten opsigte van groeikragtigheid.
