Ellendale Tom McClendon writes in Hardy Citrus Encore for the South East: Fortune Fremont (50% monoembryonic) “Most common citrus such as oranges, Temple grapefruit, lemons and most mandarins Ugli Umatilla are polyembryonic and will come true to Wilking type.

INTRODUCTION Applicant moves for judgment on the pleadings (“Motion”), arguing that “there is no genuine issue as to Opposer’s lack of prior rights in a trademark that could be confusingly similar to Applicant’s Mark.” (Motion pg. 3.)1 Applicant’s Motion is not well taken. It acknowledges that Opposer has alleged exactly what it takes issue with – that Opposer has prior rights in a trademark that could be confusingly similar to Applicant’s Mark. Despite this, Applicant seeks to take issue with those allegations, implicitly contending that Opposer will be unable to prove what it has alleged. (Motion pg. 2.) This is not a proper basis for judgment on the pleadings, which must accept as true all allegations asserted in the Opposition.

  • 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.

Many assertions in the literature about the origins of particular species are found to be without empirical basis. In the absence of other data, comparative linguistics is an important source for tracing the spread of some fruits. Contrary to the Pacific, it seems that many of the fruits we now consider characteristic of the region may well have spread in recent times.

  • Appraisal of the Acceptability of Subtropical Rutaceous Plants for a Swallowtail Butterfly, Papilio Protenor Demetrius (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae)
    Appl. Entomol. Zool. 42 (1): 121–128 (2007) http://odokon.org/ Appraisal of the acceptability of subtropical rutaceous plants for a swallowtail butterfly, Papilio protenor demetrius (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) Mamoru CHACHIN, Keiichi HONDA* and Hisashi ÔMURA Department of Biofunctional Science and Technology, Graduate School of Biosphere Science, Hiroshima University; Higashi- hiroshima 739–8528, Japan (Received 18 August 2006; Accepted 20 October 2006) Abstract A Rutaceae-feeding swallowtail butterfly, Papilio protenor demetrius, exploits only a few plant species as hosts in the field. We examined in detail the acceptability of five potential rutaceous hosts occurring in the subtropics for oviposit- ing females of a Hiroshima population of the butterfly. The plants tested were Citrus depressa, Toddalia asiatica, Evo- dia meliifolia, Melicope triphylla, and Murraya paniculata, which are distributed mainly in the Southwestern Islands of Japan, thus in allopatry with the butterfly. Female responses to the foliage, methanol extracts and partitioned frac- tions from these plants were assayed for the presence of oviposition stimulants and/or deterrents. The foliage of C. de- pressa and T. asiatica strongly stimulated egg-laying, whereas ovipositing females only marginally accepted E. meli- ifolia and Me. triphylla, and virtually rejected Mu. paniculata. Further experiments with methanol extracts and frac- tions derived from the respective plants revealed that both C. depressa and T. asiatica contained potent oviposition stimulant(s) particularly in the aqueous fractions, and that the aqueous fractions of E. meliifolia and Mu. paniculata, despite their poor or little acceptability, contained moderate and weak stimulant(s), respectively. However, certain volatile deterrent(s) seemed to be responsible for the rejection of Mu.

Influence of Different Water Quantities and Qualities on Lemon trees and Soil Salt Distribution at the Jordan Valley. Agricultural Water Management 52: 53-71. Young lemon trees (Eureka) were studied for five years (1996-2000). Five water levels and three water qualities were imposed via trickle irrigation system on clay loam soil. In saline substrates Na+ and C1- are usually the dominant ions. The lemon tree is a salt-sensitive crop to salinity, and even low salt concentrations may affect its growth and productivity. A field experiment was conducted to investigate the influence of different water and salinity levels on the development of young lemon (Eureka) trees. Materials and Methods A field experiment was conducted for 5 years. One dripper per tree for the first year, two drippers 1.0 m apart per tree for the second year, and thereafter four drippers 1.0 m apart. 8L/hr of five water levels and three water qualities. Conclusion Increasing irrigation water salinity increased salt concentration and osmotic potential in the root zone, and consequently reduced lemon annual water use, stem diameter and fruit yield. Regardless of irrigation water salinity, the significantly highest fruit yield was at irrigation water depth equal to evaporation depth from class A pan when corrected for tree canopy percentage shaded area.

  • 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.
