Full-text study of grafted Nova and Robinson scions on sour orange, Carrizo, and Troyer at Dörtyol, Hatay, Turkey. Nova results are separately reported from Robinson: Nova six-year yield and Table 4 fruit measurements are trial-specific; the paper does not establish cultivar-wide performance beyond these trees and conditions. Keep Nova rows distinct from Robinson rows. Chemical values and ratios are not sensory taste scores.

Primary study in two Nova orchards at Castellón and Murcia over two consecutive years. Reports site/year-specific fruit splitting, anatomy, fruit-set, and treatment observations. Abstract associates splitting with an open stylar end and larger navel; treatment effects varied by timing. Do not generalize the experimental results as cultivar-wide treatment advice.
