Description A study was conducted during 1994-96 on the pre-bearing perfonnance of acid lime (CitruS aurantifoha Swingle)in relation to bud union, stock: scion ratio, canopy volume, vegetative flush distribution, flowering and leaf nutrientuptake pattern on 20 rootstock strains. The lowest stock: scion ratio was in plant raised on Cleopatra mandarin (Coorgand Tirupati). The Troyer citrange (Gonicoppal and Chethalli), Carrizo citrange (Chethalli), C 32 and C 35 cltrangeimparted maximum ratio of stock and scion indicating the incogenial bud union, whereas remaining twelve rootstockstrains showed smooth bud union and fomed congenial stionic combination with acid lime. Acid lime, Alemow (C.macrophylla) and Rangpur lime (Brazilian), exhibited maximum canopy volume. While lowest canopy was found lUplants on Cleopatra mandarin (Coorg and Tirupati). Although all the rootstocks showed a cyclic flush, mduced ambia(Nov.-Dec.), mrig (June-July) and hasta (September) flush in 1995-96 but it was differed in different stionic combinationin 1996·97. The maximum accumulation of leaf P(0.2%) on C 32 citrange, K (l.93%)and Ca (7,32%) on Rangpur lime(Brazilian) was observed. Leaf Cu, Mn, Zn and Fe content were recerded maximum of 25.3 ppm,73 8 ppm 23.9 ppmand 259.2 ppm with Cleopatra mandarin (Coorg and Morocco), Schaub rough lemon and Troyer citrange (GonicoppaL)respectively. The variation in uptake of leaf micronutrient was found due to yariation in rootstock strains. The inductionof generative flush (spring flowering) of acid lime was observed on almost all the rootstQck strains in 3rd year ofplanting except C 32 (25%), acid lime seedling and Chethalli strain of Troyer citrange (50%) and Chase rough lemonand Coorg and Gonicoppal strains of Cleopatra mandarin (75%)
