UFR-8 is a citrus rootstock listed in the UF/IFAS Indian River Marsh grapefruit trial as selection 16R1T3, with source-reported parentage Ruby × Argentine. The report describes a replicated trial planted in March 2007 west of Vero Beach, Florida, using Marsh grapefruit scions.[1]
The report says trial disease ratings, yield and fruit-quality data helped inform the release of UFR-7 through UFR-12. It does not give individual release dates. Its fruit-quality and yield results describe Marsh grapefruit grafted onto these rootstocks.[1]
