The evaluation results indicated that Valencia, Washington Navel oranges and Balady mandarin as scion varieties on C'.volkaneriana and Rangpur lime rootstocks are characterized by: Higher leaf concentrations of N, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, and Zn, lower C N, N/K and higher K Na ratio compared to other rootstocks while, leaf P and Mn showed no consistent trend. Moreover, these rootstocks had higher ability to reduce Na- and Cl absorption and its accumulation in leaves of the three scion varieties in contrast to the other rootstocks UR - http://nile.enal.sci.eg/EALE/2002/EJAR/8002/2/737.pdf ER -
