Cold Hardy Citrus / Re: Japan acid citruses
« on: September 14, 2019, 03:02:58 AM »
Radoslav,

In recent publication on citrus hybrid origin based  on DNA markers it was concluded that:

"Thus, kabuchi was inferred to be an offspring of kunenbo-A as seed parent and an unidentified variety, and
keraji was inferred to be an offspring of kabuchi and kunenbo-A, but their combination was indeterminate.
This inferred parentage suggests that keraji is a backcrossed offspring of kunenbo-A."

Hello,

I found another paper which  assumes that Keraji can be a cross of Kunenbo and Kikaimikan (Kabuchi). https://ir.kagoshima-u.ac.jp/?action=pages_view_main&active_action=repository_view_main_item_detail&item_id=2762&item_no=1&page_id=13&block_id=21
In another paper  this author states, that only morphologicall difference between Keraji and Kabuchi is smell of the fruit.

As I stated before, role of DNA analysis is overestimated, if you give  DNA sample to 10 laboratories, you will get 10 different results. I remember lecture of one czech scientist, who is considered to be one of the fathers of forensic usage of DNA. (He worked on Srebrenica mass grave for example). And he said, that he is very upset with the fact, that US judges use DNA analysis as 100% evidence. Those citrus parentage games are very popular in Japan. Here is another one from 2014 : Keraji, Kabuchii, and Oto are closely related to Kunenbo based on the results of isozyme and DNA analyses. The type of cpDNA of Keraji, Kabuchii, Tarogayo, and Oto is the same as that of Kunenbo. This suggests that they arose from Kunenbo as a female ancestor because cpDNA is inherited maternally.

Another thing is, that plants, no matter if they are crossed, or backcrossed, or mutations, botanically they still can be considered as a same species.  For example citrus junos or citrus keraji, or citrus sudachi etc. It means that you can find some differences on DNA level, but botanically those diferences are not important.
In fact DNA analysis say nothing in this case,  DNA markers are not the key elements for botanical categorization, otherwise we can say, that there is no citrus keraji, no citrus oto, no citrus tarogayo, just citrus nobilis, because of kunenbo genes in each plant.

You should make a change there is a mistake in your list.
Keraji and Kabuchi are two different cultivars of mandarin, not the same.

No






オートー(C. oto hort. ex Tanaka), カーブチー(Citrus keraji var. kabuchii hort. ex Tanaka, タロガヨ(C. tarogayo Hort. ex Tanaka), ウンジュ(C. tarogayo var. uniu Hort. ex  Tanaka)

I am not a specialist, but if the situation is similar to crossing diploids with tetraploids in citrus breeding, then it will be impossible to save embryo without separation and rising in vitro.

It was very pleasant surprise. Very strong sweet taste resembles a bit overripe Pineapple.
Very soft pulp. Seeds small, relatively low number.

If you ask about difference between seedling and grafted plant behaviour, in my experiences seedlings and grafted plants (no matter, if the rootstock is rooted cutting or seedling) behave differently. Especially in harash conditions, the grafted rootstock  is trying to safe itself first and has no problem to give up grafted part.

Interesting, thank you. I shall contact an owner of this site to see where he took these photos.
Strangely, in the catalogue of citrus plants in Sotchi collection these hybrids are not listed.From what I know on the fate of Sukhumi institute, it disappeared completely.


I remember one hybrid from CRA-Centro di Ricerca per l'Agrumicoltura e le Colture Mediterranee show of new ornamental cultivars in 2012. It is kumquat ovale x budhas hand.

Radoslav,
I have been looking for these hybrids for several years, but it seems that they were lost after the collapse of the USSR.


From what I know, the plants are most likely still there, but for example in Suchumi (Сухумской опытной станции), during the war for independence, people  and database disappeared. Now they are working hard to identify plants in their possesion.



Btw.: Цитрофортунелла x Гибрид 5956

I winder why there are no kumquat X  citron hybrids?
With sweet albedo and low acid juice they should be tasty and more resistant than pure citrons.

Гибрид 5956 (F.margarita CV. Nagami x Citrus medica L.). Плоды по форме, окраске, текстуре плода и вкусу мякоти и сока соответствуют типу лимона обыкновенного (С.limon), средняя масса 60,2 г. Цветение и плодоношение слабые. По морозостойкости превосходит родительские формы. Он представляет интерес в качестве гибридного посредника в селекции лимона обыкновенного.
Гибрид 5959 (F.margarita cv. Nagami х C.medica L.). Плоды лимоноподобные, с соском и воротничковой оттяжкой у основания, тонкокорые, по величине сильно варьируют - от мелких до нормального размера для лимона обыкновенного. Средняя масса 42,7 г. Вкус сока и мякоти - лимонного типа, аромат - кинкана. Цветение ремонтантное. Семена отсутствуют.

Cold Hardy Citrus / Re: Bitter Orange aurantium
« on: July 14, 2019, 05:24:20 AM »

Citrus aurantium aka bitter orange has nothing with poncirus trifoliata.

Trifoliata has inedible fruits with oil.
Bitter orange has bitter but edible fruits usualy processed to jam.


Trifoliata is frost hardy, bitter orange is not.
