unfortunately not. the plant was sick to begin with and I was just trying to get it healthy again.

You are treating this as if these are different experiments that each prove the same thing. In actuality, each of these studies are just examining certain markers. Probably many of those markers overlap between the different studies. ...
Unfortunately I am afraid there may be a little bit of a language barrier between us, so communication about some of these precise things might be difficult.
True, I did a lot of other speculation
I read it back and it says the same thing, here I took screenshots of the parts of the analysis. C. medica appeared in the graph in the same place as C. ichangensis, they are clearly different and were raised in large multidisciplinary and international works. There in the text it says that possibly discarding some results could be the reason that C. ichangensis and C. medica will be placed together and that Yuzu is still closer to C. ichangensis and C. reticulata, confirming what has already been stated in others occasions. Furthermore, if multiple research projects reach the same point and one proposes something different, science is consolidated by evidence and because its results are repeatable, not by exceptions. I had already seen other research articles that, if they cared, raised c. medica as homologous to C. ichangensis, which those who do comparative morphology clearly disagree on everything. There was also a similar genetic phenomenon when research into the origin of citrus fruits was done. The results showed that C. medica was related to Australian citrus trees, but only in the chloroplast genome. This was considered an error and it was clarified that it made a phylogenetic tree that was not very parsimonious, meaning that it posed more problems than solutions.
The fastest flowering in my hybrids is from the Genoa lemon x rampurg lime, it is flowering after 2 years, a single plant from that cross made this phenomenon.
