Deng∗ National Key Laboratory of Crop Genetic Improvement, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan 430070, China; (∗author for correspondence; e-mail: [email protected]) Received 11 November 1999; accepted 11 September 2000 Key words: Aurantioideae, Citrus, genetic improvement, protoplast fusion, sexually compatible / incompatible intergeneric somatic hybrids Summary Citrus wild relatives are an untapped germplasm reservoir, which possesses many elite resistance traits. Genetic introgression into Citrus by conventional methods has been greatly hindered by polyembryony, pollen / ovule sterility, sexual / graft incompatibility, long juvenility etc. Somatic hybridization via protoplast fusion may make it possible to transfer genes from wild relatives to Citrus. To date, more than sixty sexually compatible or incompat- ible intergeneric somatic hybrids between Citrus and its various related wild genera have been produced by PEG – or electrically – induced fusion. These wide somatic hybrids were identified by morphology, cytology, isozyme, RAPD and RFLP analyses. Genetic variation or recombination was also revealed in some of them. Several sexually compatible combinations have flowered and set fruits. The agronomic performance of these wide somatic hybrids is diverse, and the current results are not conclusive. Somatic hybrids are being tested as rootstocks. The prospects of wide somatic hybridization of Citrus with its wild relatives are discussed.

  • Citrus Trifoliata (Rutaceae): Review of Biology and Distribution in the USA
    Nesom, G.L. 2014. Citrus trifoliata (Rutaceae): Review of biology and distribution in the USA. Phytoneuron 2014-46: 1–14. Published 1 May 2014. ISSN 2153 733X CITRUS TRIFOLIATA (RUTACEAE): REVIEW OF BIOLOGY AND DISTRIBUTION IN THE USA GUY L. NESOM 2925 Hartwood Drive Fort Worth, Texas 76109 www.guynesom.com ABSTRACT Citrus trifoliata (aka Poncirus trifoliata , trifoliate orange) has become an aggressive colonizer in the southeastern USA, spreading from plantings as a horticultural novelty and use as a hedge. Its currently known naturalized distribution apparently has resulted from many independent introductions from widely dispersed plantings. Seed set is primarily apomictic and the plants are successful in a variety of habitats, in ruderal habits and disturbed communities as well as in intact natural communities from closed canopy bottomlands to open, upland woods. Trifoliate orange is native to southeastern China and Korea. It was introduced into the USA in the early 1800's but apparently was not widely planted until the late 1800's and early 1900's and was not documented as naturalizing until about 1910. Citrus trifoliata L. (trifoliate orange, hardy orange, Chinese bitter orange, mock orange, winter hardy bitter lemon, Japanese bitter lemon) is a deciduous shrub or small tree relatively common in the southeastern USA. The species is native to eastern Asia and has become naturalized in the USA in many habitats, including ruderal sites as well as intact natural commmunities. It has often been grown as a dense hedge and as a horticultural curiosity because of its green stems and stout green thorns (stipular spines), large, white, fragrant flowers, and often prolific production of persistent, golf-ball sized orange fruits that mature in September and October.

Norm and Tracy, my UCR parents, provided such amazing enthusiasm, guidance and friendship while I was working, going to school and caring for my growing family. Their support was critical and I could not have done this without them. My committee members, Dr. Timothy Close and Dr. Robert Krueger for their valuable advice, feedback and suggestions.

Osbeck Bergamot Group (synonym Citrus × bergamia Risso & Poit.), resulting in the bursting of the oil cavities embedded in the flavedo and the release of their contents. It is chemically dominated by monoterpene hydrocarbons (i.e., limonene), but with significant percentages of oxygenated monoterpenes (i.e., linalyl acetate) and of non-volatile oxygen heterocyclic compounds (i.e., bergapten). Keywords: bergamot; citrus; essential oil; production; review 1. Introduction The taxonomy, and consequently the nomenclature, of the genus Citrus, is particularly complicated and has been rapidly changing in recent years (see Table1). For over 400 years, the centre of origin and biodiversity, along with the evolution and phylogeny of the Citrus species, have all been puzzling problems for botanists and the confusing and changing Citation: Valussi, M.; Donelli, D.; nomenclature of this taxon over the years can reflect intrinsic reproductive features of Firenzuoli, F.; Antonelli, M.
