While no citrus variety is completely resistant to HLB, some mandarin and sweet orange cultivars exhibit a higher level of tolerance to the disease, making them considered "HLB-tolerant germplasm"; notable examples include the 'Sugar Belle' mandarin hybrid ('LB8-9') and certain selections within the sweet orange category, but even these tolerant varieties will still show disease symptoms under heavy HLB pressure.
