Large-leaf Australian wild lime
The sample was collected from a single tree (inventory identifier IVNO 2781, planted in 1993) in the
Givaudan Citrus Variety Collection, University of California Riverside (UCR). The accession is identified
as CRC 3784 in the UCR system and PI 539741 in the USDA National Plant Germplasm System (NPGS).
Seeds from this source tree were propagated and used for testing for field resistance/tolerance against
citrus Huanglongbing (HLB) disease in an HLB endemic region of Florida, USA and found to be tolerant to
the disease (Ramadugu et al., 2016). This genotype has since been used to breed for HLB resistance in
commercial citrus. A description of the accession is available here.
Propagative and genetic material from this accession is available from the USDA National Clonal
Germplasm Repository for Citrus and Dates, Riverside, California subject to phytosanitary regulations.
Note: this accession has not been sanitized. Less...
