A lemon leaf showing chlorosis around the veins. Symptoms normally appear early in the spring as chlorosis of the shoot and leaf vein. There is also epinasty, or bent out and downwards, of the young leaves in the spring. This is followed by wilt and die back of leaves, twigs and branches. [2] In most cases dieback is sectorial. [3]
This causes the cells of the abscission zone to break apart and the leaf or other plant part to fall off. [6] Another way detachment occurs is through imbibition of water. [ 6 ] The plant cells at the abscission zone will take in a large amount of water, swell, and eventually burst, making the organ fall off. [ 6 ]
Citrus canker bacteria can enter through a plant's stomata or through wounds on leaves or other green parts. In most cases, younger leaves are considered to be the most susceptible. Also, damage caused by citrus leaf miner larvae (Phyllocnistis citrella) can be sites for infection to occur. Within a controlled laboratory setting, symptoms can ...

Leaf fall and leaf flushing in tropical deciduous forests can overlap in some species, called leaf-exchanging species, producing new leaves during the same period when old leaves are shed or almost immediately after. [2] [3] Leaf-flushing may be synchronized among trees of a single species or even across species in an area. [4] In the seasonal ...
