Scouting Citrus for Pests - Page 27
One of the first casualties of the brown citrus aphid was the citrus budwood grove at our Center in Immokalee. Every tree had been indexed yearly for severe CTV and all infected trees were pulled and burned. However, in 1998 we saw a rapid increase in incidence following a heavy infestation of the aphid a year earlier. Since all budwood in Florida must be certified free of severe strains of CTV, our only recourse was to grow budwood in a screen house.
