This is particularly troublesome on lemons, navels, and Parson Brown oranges. Injury to the peel ruptures the oil glands, releasing peel oil which is toxic to surrounding healthy tissue. The injury appears as irregularly shaped yellow, green, or brown spots in which the oil glands of the peel stand out prominently because of the slight sinking of the tissues between them.
