EFFECTS OF HUANGLONGBING (HLB) DISEASE ON QUALITY OF ORANGE JUICE AND IDENTIFICATION OF HLB-INDUCED CHEMICAL SIGNATURES IN FRUIT JUICE...

Determine if there are any flavor or juice cloud differences in orange juice from fruit harvested from trees affected by greening or Huanglongbing (HLB) disease treated with conventional cultural practices and pesticides compared to those from diseased trees treated with nutritional sprays and those from healthy trees. Identify off-flavored compounds and establish thresholds for those compounds and for juice from infected symptomatic fruit in normal (healthy) juice.
