Abstract
Huanglongbing (HLB) or citrus greening is endemic in Florida, resulting in billions of dollars of losses since the state’s first detection in 2005. The disease induces visual symptoms in leaves and branches, while severely impacting citrus fruit yield and quality. Fibrous root density decreases from 30 to 70 percent, reducing water and nutrient uptake and demanding more frequent and improved irrigation and nutritional management considerations.
