ABSTRACT
Six selections of Canker tolerant Acid lime (Citrus aurantifolia L.) were evaluated for number of fruits, fruit weight and fruit yield from 2006-2008 at Arid Horticulture Research Station, Kondamallepally, Nalgonda district of Telangana. The selections tested are Selection - 1, Selection - 21, Selection - 25, Tenali Selection, Petlur Local and Thirupathi Local.

Canker disease severity on 0-5 scale was recorded nil in Selection - 1, Selection - 21 and Selection - 25.
