Abstract
Lemon trees have not responded consistently to applications of any of the nutrient elements in studies at Riverside directed toward learning whether their collapse or decline is affected by nutritional factors. Neither have the trees exhibited symptoms of leaf burn usually associated with an excess of a nutrient element.
