A new and distinct variety of mandarin tree named ‘12C009’, particularly selected for non-acidic flavour profiles and distinguished by the smooth skin texture, cleanness of peeling and high Brix levels, is disclosed.

“Ma'ayana’ mandarin tree produces seedless, easy-peeling flavorful fruit that ripens mid-season.

A new and distinct variety of ‘C. unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa-wase’, plant named ‘Jedae’, this new variety Citrus plant is an early-maturing satsuma mandarin reproduced and propagated asexually, and characterized by i) rough peel, ii) vertical corrugation from fruit stalk which results in uneven outer appearance of fruit, and iii) higher flavonoid content in the fruit, compared to ‘Miyagawa-wase’.

A new and distinct sweet orange clone ‘OLL-20’ has been developed from an unstable sweet orange selection designated as ‘OLL’, using tissue culture techniques. Undeveloped ovules from fruit of selection ‘OLL’ were cultured in vitro to generate an embryogenic callus, from which multiple independent clones were regenerated via somatic embryogenesis. Regenerated plantlets (somaclones) were grafted to UFR rootstocks and grown in the field for evaluation.

The present disclosure relates to ‘Jedae mandarin’, a new citrus variety of early-ripening satsuma mandarin. The branch buds of C. unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa-wase, an early-maturing satsuma mandarin, underwent gamma irradiation and subsequent grafting for asexual propagation. As a result, the ‘Jedae mandarin’, a novel variety of citrus plant, showed uneven peels of fruits and changes in flavonoid content, compared to C. unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa-wase, although it exhibited characteristics very similar to those of C. unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa-wase in terms of blooming, fruit-bearing, sugar content, acidity, etc. Thus, ‘Jedae mandarin’ may be used as a new variety with high economic value.

A new and distinct variety of mandarin tree named ‘12C009’, particularly selected for non-acidic flavour profiles and distinguished by the smooth skin texture, cleanness of peeling and high Brix levels, is disclosed.

A new and distinct variety of mandarin tree named ‘11C017R’, particularly selected for non-acidic flavour profiles and distinguished by the smooth skin texture, cleanness of peeling and high Brix levels, is disclosed.

‘BENEDICTO’ is an early, seedless, thin-skinned lemon. The tree is thornless on stems and shoots, with large leaves and short internodes, vigorous and high yield efficiency.

A composite orange tree having a fruiting cultivar scion grafted to a citrus-greening resistant, or a salinity-resistant rootstock, or a rootstock having both citrus-greening and salinity resistance, is described herein, as are methods of growing such a composite orange tree.

A new and distinct mandarin variety of Citrus deliciosa Ten. named ‘SIGAL’, particularly characterized by easy-peeling, late ripening, high quality flavor, flattened fruit shape at stalk end, medium size fruit, dark orange skin color and lacking seed.
