Grafted Esrog: Disqualification and Identifying Signs

From: Rabbi Moshe Sofer

To: Unknown recipient

Description

The Chasam Sofer analyzes why a grafted esrog is invalid and whether external physical signs suffice to identify non-grafted esrogim. He rules that grafting does not change the esrog's species but the admixture of another species disqualifies it.
