  • New and Noteworthy Citrus Varieties Presentation
    New and Noteworthy Citrus Varieties Citrus species & Citrus Relatives Hundreds of varieties available. CITRON Citrus medica • The citron is believed to be one of the original kinds of citrus. • Trees are small and shrubby with an open growth habit. The new growth and flowers are flushed with purple and the trees are sensitive to frost. • Ethrog or Etrog citron is a variety of citron commonly used in the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles. The flesh is pale yellow and acidic, but not very juicy. The fruits hold well on the tree. The aromatic fruit is considerably larger than a lemon. • The yellow rind is glossy, thick and bumpy. Citron rind is traditionally candied for use in holiday fruitcake. Ethrog or Etrog citron CITRON Citrus medica • Buddha’s Hand or Fingered citron is a unique citrus grown mainly as a curiosity. The six to twelve inch fruits are apically split into a varying number of segments that are reminiscent of a human hand. • The rind is yellow and highly fragrant at maturity. The interior of the fruit is solid rind with no flesh or seeds. • Fingered citron fruits usually mature in late fall to early winter and hold moderately well on the tree, but not as well as other citron varieties.

Mabberley1,2,3 and Phillip G. Kodela1 1National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Gardens & Domain Trust, Mrs Macquaries Road, Sydney, NSW 2000, Australia; 2Wadham College, University of Oxford, UK; 3Macquarie University, NSW 2109, Australia Abstract In the context of the elucidation of the ancestry of today’s commercial citrus crops, a lectotype is here designated for Citrus cavaleriei H.Lév. ex Cavalerie (Rutaceae, subfam. Aurantioideae), a species found in China and India, and one of the putative parents of C. ×junos Siebold ex Tanaka, the yuzu. Introduction The history of the domestication of citrus fruits is complicated by extensive hybridity between wild species, brought together by humans, and subsequent selection of apomictic clones, which make up the bulk of today’s commercial citrus crops worldwide (Mabberley 1997, 2004, 2013). The most significant globally are selections from the Citrus ×aurantium L. complex, oranges and grapefruit etc., derived from crosses between C. maxima (Burm.) Merr., the pomelo, and the mandarin from southern China, generally known as C. reticulata Blanco. The lemons and bergamots are derived from crosses between this complex and C. medica L., the citron. Even though this is well-established, there are still outstanding issues, in that no unequivocally wild populations of either C.

  • Genomics of the Origin and Evolution of Citrus
    OPEN ARTICLE doi:10.1038/nature25447 Genomics of the origin and evolution of Citrus Guohong Albert Wu1, Javier Terol2, Victoria Ibanez2, Antonio López-García2, Estela Pérez-Román2, Carles Borredá2, Concha Domingo2, Francisco R. Tadeo2, Jose Carbonell-Caballero3, Roberto Alonso3, Franck Curk4, Dongliang Du5, Patrick Ollitrault6, Mikeal L. Roose7, Joaquin Dopazo3,8, Frederick G. Gmitter Jr5, Daniel S. Rokhsar1,9,10 & Manuel Talon2 The genus Citrus, comprising some of the most widely cultivated fruit crops worldwide, includes an uncertain number of species. Here we describe ten natural citrus species, using genomic, phylogenetic and biogeographic analyses of 60 accessions representing diverse citrus germ plasms, and propose that citrus diversified during the late Miocene epoch through a rapid southeast Asian radiation that correlates with a marked weakening of the monsoons. A second radiation enabled by migration across the Wallace line gave rise to the Australian limes in the early Pliocene epoch. Further identification and analyses of hybrids and admixed genomes provides insights into the genealogy of major commercial cultivars of citrus. Among mandarins and sweet orange, we find an extensive network of relatedness that illuminates the domestication of these groups. Widespread pummelo admixture among these mandarins and its correlation with fruit size and acidity suggests a plausible role of pummelo introgression in the selection of palatable mandarins. This work provides a new evolutionary framework for the genus Citrus. The genus Citrus
