Expert System for the Florida Citrus Rootstock Selection Guide, 4th Edition
Florida Citrus Rootstock Selection Guide. I don't replace the guide, but rather am intended to be used alongside it. I will interview you and can reason through your information to hone in on your best rootstock options. Over time, I'll keep learning in a way that will make my answers even better. Here are the ways I can help you:
My analysis will provide a report that gives you a ranked list of rootstocks that ON AVERAGE are top candidates for you to consider in your situation. Please be sure to read the disclaimer below before proceeding.

How to Use These Results
The information below is just one of several sources that must be consulted to make an informed rootstock selection. Other sources include the Florida Rootstock Selection Guide, other growers, our reference bibliography and your own experience. Based on your answers to the questions in this interview, here are my suggestions for rootstocks that come closest to meeting your needs.
The term, Selection Score, shown in the rankings immediately below the rootstock name is not a statistical value. Instead, it refers to a relative ranking of my confidence that rootstock is suitable on average for the conditions you described. The closer in value the Selection Score for a rootstock is to 100.00, the closer the match of that rootstock is for your situation.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Selecting Recently Released rootstocks involves more risk because of less time and scope of evaluation.
You selected a total of 0.00 traits in this session. Here are the selections you made for how to perform this analysis: - Evaluate horticultural traits - Evaluate site tolerances - Evaluate pest and disease traits - Evaluate rootstocks from all release dates - Show all rootstocks, including positively- and negatively-rated ones. Negatively-rated rootstocks are rootstocks that did not meet your minimum criteria
Compare these results to the rootstock selection table at flcrsg.com. The colors highlighted in the release category correspond to the same colors in the online rootstock table.
Rootstock Rankings - ordered from top to bottom
The maximum Selection Score for any single rootstock is 100%.
If you don't see any rootstocks in a bullet list in the next section below, it means I'm not sufficiently confident in this instance to make recommendations. You might try clicking the Back button at the bottom right corner of this page to go to the prior screen, then lower the confidence level which I'll use to revised this report.
