Abstract

The resistance of different citrus species and varieties to citrus rust mite (Phyllocoptruta oleivora) was evaluated in the laboratory. The results indicated that the pineapple orange (Citrus sinensis), Dancy tangerine (C. reticulata), rough lemon (C. limon) and flying dragon (Poncirus trifoliata) are susceptible to citrus rust mite based on the high reproductive rate, long female longevity and rapid population growth. C. grandis, C. ichangensis and sour orange (C. aurantium) possess strong resistance to citrus rust mite and very low reproductive rates and no rates of mite population growth were observed on these three citrus species. Grapefruits (C. paradisi) belong to the medium-resistant group.
