some of the leaves turns yellow and fall down with the fruites geting dry in addition to the branches..
almost2/3 of the tree became  dry.


Answer
Hi Linda...sounds very much like you are not watering it enough.  Also different trees on root stocks have different life cycles.  You do not say if it is in the ground or in a container.  Citrus will suck the juice out of the fruit to survive...seems like not enough watering going on.  Minimum 3 inches  per week.  Container plant in sun almost everyday.
