  • TAHITIAN LIME(Persian
    TAHITIAN LIME (Persian Lime) Limes have many uses, including jams, jellies, marmalade and garnishing fish and other main dishes. The fruit is sold commercially as fresh fruit and also for processing although the Tahitian lime is preferred as fresh fruit because it is considered unsuitable for lime cordial products. The name “Tahitian” was given to the lime when the fruit was introduced from Tahiti to California. However, with the introduction of this variety into Australia in 1824 (possibly from Brazil) the fruit was then more commonly called the Persian lime. DESCRIPTION Large sized lime, generally 5 - 7 cm long and 4 - 6 cm in diameter. Colour of the fruit is green and pale lemon/yellow at maturity. The fruit has a distinct lime flavour and a moderate to high acidic level. The flesh at maturity is green and pulpy. Sold mainly as fresh fruit, Tahitian limes rarely have seeds and are excellent for growing in many areas of Australia. PRODUCTION OF LIME TREES Main crop harvest will vary with seasonal conditions and districts. January to March on the far North Coast areas. February to March on the Central Coast. April to July in cooler districts. The trees have little thorns and are moderately vigorous, growing from 2 to 4 metres high. Size depends on soil and rootstocks. Lime trees have the highest heat requirements of all citrus fruits and therefore grown in tropical or sub-tropical areas where better fruit quality is obtained. The trees grow continuously and are sensitive to cold. The Tahitian lime is slightly more cold resistant than other varieties, however frosts can damage both foliage and fruit.

  • Reaction of Tangerines Genotypes to Elsinoe Fawcettiiunder
    Reaction of tangerines genotypes to Elsinoe fawcettii under natural infection conditions Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology 11: 77-81, 2011 Brazilian Society of Plant Breeding. Printed in Brazil Reaction of tangerines genotypes to Elsinoe fawcettii under natural infection conditions Marcelo Claro de Souza1*, Eduardo Sanches Stuchi2 and Antonio de Goes3 Received 11 February 2010 Accepted 30 September 2010 ABSTRACT - A citrus scab disease, caused by Elsinoe fawcettii, is currently found in all citrus areas throughout Brazil. That being, given the importance of this casual agent, the behavior of tangerines and hybrids influenced by this pathogen was evaluated under natural infection conditions. This study was performed with plants around 15 years old without irrigation; 100 fruits of three plants were collected during harvest season, using a grade scale varying from 0 (absence of symptoms) to 6 (severe symptoms) the level of disease severity was determined. Among the cultivars, citrus scab resistance was observed in Citrus deliciosa, C. tangerina, C. nobilis; a mandarin hybrid (C. nobilis x C. deliciosa) and a satsuma hybrid (C. unshiu x C. sinensis). Among the other genotypes, symptoms were observed with levels of severity ranging from 1 to 3, indicating moderate resistance. Key words: Citrus scab, citrus crop, resistant varieties. INTRODUCTION In Brazil, E. fawcettii is responsible for citrus scab. The disease is widespread in many humid, citrus-cultivating In many citrus production areas around the world, areas around the world and decreases fruit values on the Elsinoe fawcettii is one of the main fungi diseases found. fresh-fruit market (Feichtenberger et al. 1986).

  • New Citrus Varieties Fort Bend County Master Gardeners
    New Citrus Varieties Fort Bend County Master Gardeners Fruit Tree Sale, February 9, 2019 Written by Deborah Birge, Fort Bend County Master Gardener Citrus is one of the most sought-after fruit trees for residents of Fort Bend County. Nothing is more intoxicating than a tree full of orange or lemon blossoms. Nothing more inviting than a tree full of tasty oranges or satsumas ready for the picking. Citrus can be cold hardy needing little winter care or very cold sensitive needing protection from temperatures below 40 degrees. Choosing the variety for your particular needs and interest can be accomplished by understanding the many varieties and their properties. Fort Bend County Master Gardeners will be offering several new citrus varieties at the Annual Fruit Tree Sale, February 9, 2019. We have a new pommelo, lime, three mandarins, and a grapefruit. This article will discuss each to help you in your decisions. Australian Finger Lime The Australian finger lime is described as Citrus Caviar. These small cucumber-shaped limes are practically in a category all their own. Their aromatic skin appears in a triad of colors and the flesh holds caviar- shaped vesicles that pop crisply in your mouth with an assertively tart punch. The tree is a small-leafed understory plant with some thorns. The tough climate conditions of the Australian coastal regions where Finger Limes were first grown make it suitable for a diversity of planting locations with little care or maintenance. It will even tolerate cooler weather down to a brief frost. Its compact, almost hedge-like stature make it an excellent candidate for tight spots in the garden or throughout the landscape.

We identified 60 volatile compounds of lime essential oil (LEO) with GC/MS, of which the predominant constituents were limonene, γ-terpinene, and β-pinene. Lime essential oil was measured according to the DPPH assay and ABTS assay, with IC50 values of 2.36 mg/mL and 0.26 mg/mL, respectively. This study also explored the protective effects of LEO against lipid-induced hyperlipidemia in a rat model. Two groups of rats received oral LEO in doses of 0.74 g/100 g and 2.23 g/100 g with their diets. Eight weeks later, we found that the administration of LEO improved the serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate transaminase levels in the hyperlipidemic rats (p < 0.05). Simultaneously, the LEO improved the health of the rats in terms of obesity, atherogenic index, and fatty liver.

  • Tropical Horticulture: Lecture 32 1
    Tropical Horticulture: Lecture 32 Lecture 32 Citrus Citrus: Citrus spp., Rutaceae Citrus are subtropical, evergreen plants originating in southeast Asia and the Malay archipelago but the precise origins are obscure. There are about 1600 species in the subfamily Aurantioideae. The tribe Citreae has 13 genera, most of which are graft and cross compatible with the genus Citrus. There are some tropical species (pomelo). All Citrus combined are the most important fruit crop next to grape. 1 Tropical Horticulture: Lecture 32 The common features are a superior ovary on a raised disc, transparent (pellucid) dots on leaves, and the presence of aromatic oils in leaves and fruits. Citrus has increased in importance in the United States with the development of frozen concentrate which is much superior to canned citrus juice. Per-capita consumption in the US is extremely high. Citrus mitis (calamondin), a miniature orange, is widely grown as an ornamental house pot plant. History Citrus is first mentioned in Chinese literature in 2200 BCE. First citrus in Europe seems to have been the citron, a fruit which has religious significance in Jewish festivals. Mentioned in 310 BCE by Theophrastus. Lemons and limes and sour orange may have been mutations of the citron. The Romans grew sour orange and lemons in 50–100 CE; the first mention of sweet orange in Europe was made in 1400. Columbus brought citrus on his second voyage in 1493 and the first plantation started in Haiti. In 1565 the first citrus was brought to the US in Saint Augustine. 2 Tropical Horticulture: Lecture 32 Taxonomy Citrus classification based on morphology of mature fruit (e.g.
