Bureau <strong>of</strong> Citrus <strong>Budwood</strong> Registration<br />
The Bureau <strong>of</strong> Citrus <strong>Budwood</strong> Registration oversees budwood<br />
certification in <strong>Florida</strong>’s commercial citrus nurseries. The protection <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Florida</strong>’s propagating material is fundamental to ensuring growers<br />
receive disease-free trees to plant. Citrus growers have enough<br />
challenges without having to worry if the nursery stock they are planting<br />
is healthy. Planting pathogen-infected trees is economically<br />
unsustainable <strong>and</strong>, at the very least, farm pr<strong>of</strong>its would be greatly<br />
diminished. Disease-infected trees <strong>of</strong>ten are not noticed until after<br />
growers have absorbed several years <strong>of</strong> caretaking expenses on top <strong>of</strong><br />
tree <strong>and</strong> planting costs. <strong>Budwood</strong> registration includes grafttransmissible<br />
pathogen testing <strong>of</strong> all propagating sources in <strong>Florida</strong>.<br />
Allowing only disease-tested material into the nurseries increases the<br />
likelihood <strong>of</strong> disease-free plants leaving the nursery. The Bureau <strong>of</strong><br />
Citrus <strong>Budwood</strong> Registration’s foundation facility provides nurserymen<br />
with tested scion material for establishment <strong>of</strong> their own clean stock. The<br />
bureau’s laboratory tests foundation <strong>and</strong> nursery propagating source<br />
routinely for the endemic graft-transmissible diseases <strong>of</strong> citrus.<br />
This year’s high point was the completion <strong>of</strong> the Chiefl<strong>and</strong> budwood<br />
foundation facility. The rapid start-up <strong>of</strong> this project was a result <strong>of</strong><br />
having clean, protected trees available to move from a central <strong>Florida</strong><br />
greenhouse to the new greenhouse - without having to start over with<br />
newly budded trees. The fact that those pathogen-tested trees had been<br />
under protected greenhouse cover their entire lives, accelerated the<br />
transition. Therefore, budwood was made available almost from day one.<br />
The Chiefl<strong>and</strong> greenhouses are in their second year <strong>of</strong> operation, <strong>and</strong> are<br />
starting to produce significant quantities <strong>of</strong> budwood. One hundred<br />
thirty-two thous<strong>and</strong> budeyes were cut from the Chiefl<strong>and</strong> greenhouses<br />
this fiscal year, bringing the total budwood cut in the first 1½ years to<br />
174,210 eyes.<br />
Nine hundred seventy-one tree spaces are planted at Chiefl<strong>and</strong>, leaving<br />
room for only 164 additional trees. The planted trees represent 321<br />
different clonal selections. The Chiefl<strong>and</strong> foundation planting is 33.9%<br />
sweet orange, representing 52 different sweet orange varieties. M<strong>and</strong>arins<br />
make up 27.0% <strong>of</strong> the trees, representing 73 varieties. Grapefruit is<br />
represented with 22 varieties <strong>and</strong> consists <strong>of</strong> 9.3% <strong>of</strong> the planting. The<br />
greenhouse trees are inspected every day. Also, the perimeter <strong>of</strong> the<br />
structure is walked daily, being closely scanned for any possible areas<br />
that could allow insect incursion.<br />
The lowest temperature recorded outside the greenhouse during the<br />
winter <strong>of</strong> 2009 was 17 degrees. Inside the greenhouses the temperature<br />
never dipped below 50 degrees. Approximately 2,800 gallons <strong>of</strong> LP gas<br />

Historical Timeline<br />
1951<br />
1952<br />
1953<br />
A symposium is held at Camp McQuarrie<br />
on certified budwood<br />
A “<strong>Budwood</strong> Certification Committee” is<br />
formed at the <strong>Florida</strong> State Horticultural<br />
Society.<br />
<strong>Florida</strong>’s voluntary <strong>Budwood</strong> Program<br />
begins with Gerald Norman in charge<br />
1953 Test plot established at Lake Fanny<br />
1958<br />
72% <strong>of</strong> parent c<strong>and</strong>idates disqualified due<br />
to viroids<br />
1959 1 st foundation grove started at I-4 <strong>and</strong> 27<br />
were used during the winter to maintain greenhouse temperatures, <strong>and</strong> at no<br />
time were more than 50% <strong>of</strong> the heaters operating.<br />
A new <strong>of</strong>fice/headhouse building was added to the bureau’s Chiefl<strong>and</strong><br />
foundation facility in 2008-2009. The new <strong>of</strong>fice includes a walk-in cooler<br />
for the most favorable storage <strong>of</strong> budwood before shipment. A large work-<br />
room allows for trimming budwood in an air-conditioned environment,<br />
further optimizing the condition <strong>of</strong> the budwood. A conference room<br />
provides a place for small groups to meet <strong>and</strong> receive information on the<br />
budwood facility without having to enter the greenhouses. Because <strong>of</strong> the<br />
importance <strong>of</strong> minimizing any risk <strong>of</strong> pathogen contamination <strong>of</strong> the<br />
foundation clean stock, the greenhouse areas are <strong>of</strong>f limits to visitors.<br />
Although a window has been placed in the side <strong>of</strong> the greenhouse for visitors<br />
to view the operation.<br />
The Immokalee IFAS cooperative foundation greenhouse facility, which has<br />
not been used for budwood since the 2006-07 fiscal year, has been partially<br />
top-worked to seed source varieties. Eleven different seed source varieties<br />
have been top-worked inside <strong>of</strong> greenhouse #2.<br />
Since the advent <strong>of</strong> <strong>Florida</strong>’s budwood program, more than 163 million<br />
registered nursery trees have been produced. Nursery capacity <strong>and</strong><br />
production has been increasing the past three years, after a four year period <strong>of</strong><br />
decline. Production levels have nearly returned to what was produced in the<br />
2003-2004 season. Although the number <strong>of</strong> citrus nurseries is lower than we<br />
had five years ago, the average production per nursery has increased. The<br />
average nursery made 85 thous<strong>and</strong> propagations this fiscal year. Forty-six<br />
percent <strong>of</strong> <strong>Florida</strong>’s nursery trees are produced in Polk County, <strong>and</strong> this is<br />
where the majority <strong>of</strong> the citrus nursery inspectors are stationed. Forty-four<br />
commercial citrus nurseries reported making nearly 3.8 million propagations<br />
in 15 counties.<br />
The bureau registered 8,665 scion trees this fiscal year. This is up 594 trees<br />
from last year. This represents 5,515 trees (64%) that are budwood sources<br />
<strong>and</strong> 3,150 trees (36%) that are seed source trees. <strong>Budwood</strong> sources are<br />
required to be grown in protected greenhouses that have to be approved by<br />
the Division <strong>of</strong> Plant Industry, while seed source trees can be field grown.<br />
Bureau personnel witnessed the planting <strong>of</strong> 933 new scion trees this fiscal<br />
year, <strong>of</strong> which 415 are seed source. The average age <strong>of</strong> a budwood scion tree<br />
is 3.2 years old. The transformation <strong>of</strong> the nursery industry from field to<br />
greenhouse in 2006 resulted in newly established protected budwood trees.<br />
While initially reducing the availability <strong>of</strong> budwood, the longer term result is<br />
cleaner pathogen-free propagation material. Scion trees produced 51% <strong>of</strong> the<br />
nursery propagating material, with<br />
the average scion tree producing 878<br />
budeyes in 2008-2009. Increase<br />
trees accounted for 45% <strong>of</strong> nursery<br />
propagation material. Qualifying<br />
increase trees, those originating<br />
from foundation trees, can be<br />
converted to scion trees by being<br />
witnessed <strong>and</strong> pathogen tested.<br />
Annual Report 2009 (FY 2008-2009) Bureau <strong>of</strong> Citrus <strong>Budwood</strong> Registration 2
This fiscal year, all program seed source <strong>and</strong> budwood scion trees were tested<br />
for citrus greening with no greening-positive trees being found. Seed source<br />
trees were all additionally tested for citrus leaf blotch virus, with only 2 trees<br />
testing positive. <strong>Budwood</strong> scion trees were also tested for citrus tristeza virus<br />
<strong>and</strong> citrus viroids. Collecting the samples from all 8,665 scion trees takes over<br />
3 months. The chopping <strong>of</strong> the samples is done immediately upon arrival in the<br />
lab. Testing begins with all trees being run for citrus greening, before any other<br />
tests are conducted. Citrus tristeza virus testing begins once all the HLB tests<br />
have been completed. Additional pathogen testing then begins, once the tristeza<br />
tests are completed. All these tests are qPCR based, <strong>and</strong> the initial extraction is<br />
suitable for all subsequent tests. This is a very efficient <strong>and</strong> cost- effective<br />
means <strong>of</strong> testing source trees, as only<br />
one collection per year is required.<br />
In past years, multiple trips to nursery<br />
sites were required for sample<br />
collection. One trip is all that is now<br />
needed, due to the ability to detect all<br />
pathogens from the one extraction. A<br />
total <strong>of</strong> 33,118 pathogen tests were run<br />
at the bureau’s Winter Haven laboratory. The majority <strong>of</strong> these analyses were<br />
on scion trees, <strong>and</strong> foundation trees. The <strong>Florida</strong> Citrus Arboretum had 2<br />
additional HLB positive trees this year, bringing the total <strong>of</strong> positives at this<br />
location to 4. No program budwood source trees were identified as being<br />
greening infected. The old foundation grove at Dundee continues to struggle<br />
with citrus canker infection. Approximately 644 grapefruit trees were removed<br />
from the grove to reduce the risk <strong>of</strong> spreading canker inoculum to the sweet<br />
oranges. The original seed source block containing many Poncirus trifoliate<br />
hybrids, has been particularly hard hit by canker infection, with 65 percent <strong>of</strong><br />
the trees being removed.<br />
Hamlins <strong>and</strong> Valencias, the perennial favorite varieties produced, have<br />
consistently been the top two citrus varieties grown. Midsweet continues in<br />
third place, <strong>and</strong> is the top midseason variety. With <strong>Florida</strong>’s citrus industry<br />
predominately producing an orange juice product, it is no surprise that these<br />
three sweet varieties are the most widely planted. Sweet oranges comprise 89<br />
percent <strong>of</strong> the total nursery production. Grapefruit represent 4.7 % <strong>of</strong> nursery<br />
propagations, <strong>and</strong> m<strong>and</strong>arin 4.1%. Ray Ruby was the most widely used<br />
grapefruit variety, <strong>and</strong> is also the #1 variety being topworked. Ruby Red is<br />
the second top grapefruit selection propagated, followed by Rio Red.<br />
One hundred fifty-three different<br />
selections were propagated this fiscal<br />
year. Although the citrus industry<br />
utilizes only a minority <strong>of</strong> varieties in<br />
commercial plantings, the dooryard<br />
(homeowner) market employs a vast<br />
array <strong>of</strong> citrus types. Swingle<br />
citrumelo remains the top used<br />
rootstock, a position it has held now for 21 years. Nursery trees on Swingle<br />
account for 40 % <strong>of</strong> all propagations. Kuharske citrange <strong>and</strong> Carrizo citrange<br />
were the 2 nd <strong>and</strong> 3 rd most utilized rootstocks, accounting for 24% <strong>and</strong> 18% <strong>of</strong><br />

Historical look at the numbers <strong>of</strong> tests run for routine citrus pathogen indexing. A larger number <strong>of</strong> indicator plants were used as the number <strong>of</strong> indicators<br />
per test varied from 3 to 10.<br />
1 Due to citrus canker concerns <strong>and</strong> the proximity <strong>of</strong> clean stock to testing areas, testing <strong>of</strong> outside sources <strong>of</strong> budwood was suspended. This reflects in<br />
lower numbers <strong>of</strong> tests performed 2004-2007. Testing will resume once clean stock is moved out <strong>of</strong> Winter Haven.<br />
2 HLB extractions only processed by the bureau lab in 2006-2007, PCR test run by Mike Irey.<br />
3 The <strong>Budwood</strong> Bureau began running the complete test in the 2 nd quarter 2007-2008.<br />
E = ELISA; LB = Citrus Leaf Blotch virus; x = Cachexia Viroid.<br />
CTV testing <strong>of</strong> budwood sources transitioned from Elisa based to qPCR in 2009.
Pathogen Testing<br />
Testing for Citrus greening (HLB) <strong>and</strong> Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) are done annually as both <strong>of</strong> these diseases<br />
have insect vectors. This test ensures that if any insects were able to breach the greenhouse approved structures<br />
<strong>and</strong> transmit either <strong>of</strong> these diseases it would be detected. There is one annual collection <strong>of</strong> samples <strong>and</strong> it starts<br />
in late August <strong>and</strong> continues until all collections are complete with December as the goal for completion. As<br />
HLB is our most important pathogen, this time <strong>of</strong> year for collection was chosen as it is the optimal time <strong>of</strong> year<br />
to scout for HLB <strong>and</strong> also for its detection. As we do not have a dedicated collection crew, Bureau laboratory,<br />
grove <strong>and</strong> inspection personnel from the Winter Haven <strong>of</strong>fice collect the majority <strong>of</strong> the samples. Staff at the<br />
Chiefl<strong>and</strong> Foundation help with the collections from the northern nurseries in their vicinity. This fiscal year our<br />
laboratory extracted 10,265 samples. Utilizing these extractions 7,128 scion trees <strong>and</strong> 926 Chiefl<strong>and</strong> trees were<br />
tested for HLB using a real time PCR (qPCR test). From the same extract used for the HLB test, CTV qPCR<br />
tests were run also. CTV qPCR tests have replaced the ELISA tests that required a separate spring collection.<br />
These qPCR tests are more sensitive than the MCA-13 ELISA test, use the same principle <strong>and</strong> can distinguish<br />
MCA-13 severe strains from mild strains <strong>of</strong> CTV.<br />
Citrus leaf blotch virus (CLBV) is an important virus as we have found it in some <strong>of</strong> the source trees <strong>and</strong> it can<br />
be seed transmitted. We developed a qPCR test that we used this past year to test all seed source trees as well as<br />
scion <strong>and</strong> foundation trees. A low level <strong>of</strong> positive trees were detected <strong>and</strong> removed. Real-time PCR testing for<br />
three diseases using the same extract from one collection has allowed sensitive detection <strong>and</strong> maximized the<br />
time <strong>and</strong> effort used for the collections from over 10,000 trees.<br />

Shoot-Tip Grafting <strong>and</strong> <strong>Florida</strong> Parent Tree Introduction<br />
The application <strong>of</strong> the efficient qPCR testing technology to incoming parent c<strong>and</strong>idate trees <strong>and</strong> their shoot-tip<br />
grafts (STGs) has helped to decrease the length <strong>of</strong> time for testing. Tests on incoming parent c<strong>and</strong>idates give us<br />
an early indication <strong>of</strong> what disease(s) need(s) to be eliminated. Because <strong>of</strong> the potential <strong>of</strong> Citrus greening in<br />
incoming parent tree introductions, they are automatically shoot-tip grafted to remove this risk. QPCR tests on<br />
STGs allow early determination <strong>of</strong> disease status while slower biological tests are in progress. After initial<br />
qPCR testing results are obtained, a horticulturally superior specimen is selected, grown <strong>of</strong>f <strong>and</strong> increased for<br />
eventual release.<br />
We recognize the importance <strong>of</strong> having all possible <strong>Florida</strong> Germplasm selections as disease free as possible<br />
<strong>and</strong> kept safe in our new screen house facility at Chiefl<strong>and</strong>. This fiscal year an emphasis was placed on the<br />
Parent Tree Indexing <strong>and</strong> Shoot-tip grafting programs to expedite progress on all selections <strong>and</strong> also to work to<br />
remove mild isolates <strong>of</strong> CTV from clones at Chiefl<strong>and</strong> where necessary.<br />
Sixty-two trees were in the Parent Tree Indexing Program at year’s end. Twenty-five were entered this year <strong>and</strong><br />
32 parents <strong>and</strong>/or STGs were released this year. Of the released clones, five were Breeder’s varieties, eight were<br />
already available at Chiefl<strong>and</strong>, but had the Mild CTV removed, nine were STGed to remove severe CTV, three<br />
viroids, <strong>and</strong> one Citrus leaf blotch virus.<br />
In 2008-2009, we had our greatest production <strong>of</strong> shoot-tip grafts, doubling that <strong>of</strong> the previous year. 1,846<br />
shoot-tip grafts were set up, <strong>of</strong> these, 135 were grafted into rootstocks in the greenhouse. At the end <strong>of</strong> the fiscal<br />
year a total <strong>of</strong> 43 cultivars were in the process <strong>of</strong> being shoot-tip grafted. Fifty-six cultivars have been<br />
successfully STGed <strong>and</strong> are undergoing various stages <strong>of</strong> testing. The process <strong>of</strong> STGing a selection used to<br />
take a minimum <strong>of</strong> five years. Now for selections newly entered into the program, the entire process takes under<br />
two years if there are no complications.<br />

Our Vision<br />
The Bureau <strong>of</strong> Citrus <strong>Budwood</strong> Registration will provide high yielding, pathogen free, quality budlines that will<br />
positively impact the productivity <strong>and</strong> prosperity <strong>of</strong> our citrus industry.<br />
Our Mission<br />
The Bureau <strong>of</strong> Citrus <strong>Budwood</strong> Registration administers a program to assist growers <strong>and</strong> nurserymen in<br />
producing citrus nursery trees that are believed to be horticulturally true to varietal type, productive, <strong>and</strong> free<br />
from certain recognizable bud-transmissible diseases detrimental to fruit production <strong>and</strong> tree longevity.<br />
Benefits <strong>of</strong> a <strong>Budwood</strong> Program<br />
The <strong>Florida</strong> budwood program has greatly impacted <strong>Florida</strong> citrus, as the use <strong>of</strong> registered budwood selections<br />
or “budlines” is responsible for impressive increases in yield <strong>and</strong> fruit quality in the industry. The budwood<br />
program introduced many nucellar lines that are still the basis <strong>of</strong> many <strong>of</strong> our main varieties. The ability to test<br />
for graft-transmitted pathogens <strong>and</strong> exclude unclean propagating material has not only increased production <strong>and</strong><br />
tree longevity but also the ability <strong>of</strong> our groves to withst<strong>and</strong> other environmental stresses.<br />
• Diseases are kept out <strong>of</strong> the propagation system<br />
o Using clean nursery stock means growers receive disease free trees coming out <strong>of</strong> the nursery<br />
• Testing for citrus viroids is more critical than ever as the industry uses predominantly citrange<br />
<strong>and</strong> citrummelo type rootstocks that are more susceptible to viroids<br />
o The budwood program is credited with having viroid free trees for the industry to use when the rootstocks<br />
were changed from rough lemon <strong>and</strong> sour orange to Carrizo <strong>and</strong> Swingle<br />
Other countries without budwood programs had major viroid problems when changing rootstocks<br />
away from sour orange<br />
• Citrus tristeza virus strains are worse today than a few years ago<br />
o Stem pitting tristeza virus strains have been found in several commercial grove locations in <strong>Florida</strong><br />
• Psorosis virus is becoming hard to find in <strong>Florida</strong> after 50 years <strong>of</strong> budwood registration<br />
o Prior to the budwood program psorosis was widespread in <strong>Florida</strong><br />
Yields in psorosis infected trees were reduced 10 to 35 percent <strong>and</strong> made the trees easier to<br />
succumb to cold <strong>and</strong> other environmental stresses<br />
• Protection <strong>of</strong> our industry from exotic citrus diseases requires controlling citrus propagating<br />
material<br />
o Citrus greening is the latest disease to move from the exotic disease list to become an endemic disease<br />
o Citrus variegated chlorosis <strong>and</strong> citrus sudden death are examples <strong>of</strong> pathogens whose main means <strong>of</strong><br />
control is budwood certification<br />
Grove trees started from clean stock have the potential to be pr<strong>of</strong>itable even in the presence <strong>of</strong><br />
disease, whereas nursery trees started systemically infected will never become pr<strong>of</strong>itable grove<br />
trees<br />
• Yields are increased with registered budwood clonal selections<br />
o Nucellar Valencia clones alone increased yields by 25% over old line selections<br />
o Examples <strong>of</strong> registered clonal selections in every variety show remarkable yield gains<br />
• True to type varieties <strong>and</strong> rootstocks are propagated<br />
o Inspected trees with <strong>of</strong>f-types are removed from budwood supply<br />
• <strong>Budwood</strong> programs are recognized world wide as the most effective means <strong>of</strong> excluding <strong>and</strong><br />
containing citrus graft-transmissible pathogens<br />
