Results showed that rootstocks had significant effects on leaf chlorophyll content. The greatest chlorophyll content obtained on Volkamer lemon rootstock. The rootstock types had significant effect on leaf mineral concentrations except of Cl, P, Cu, Mn and Zn. Leaf N and Mn concentration was lower than optimum range on all rootstocks, K on Mexican lime rootstock and Ca on all roostocks except Mexican lime. The scions on Sour orange had the highest Cl. Na concentrations was the heighest on Mexican lime rootstock.
