Goals / Objectives
Analyze citrus lines with varying degrees of tolerance to Huanglongbing (HLB) for flavonoids and limonoids that may contribute to HLB-induced off-flavor and as markers for the disease.
Methods (unparsed)
Access fruit from different citrus lines from University of Florida and other sources and prepare for analysis of sugars, acids, limonoids and flavonoids to determine off-flavors due to Huanglongbing (HLB).
