Oranges and mandarins in Chongqing, China, are mostly processed for juice their peels wasted or landfilled. To add value, it is essential to utilize the extract useful materials, such as citrus oils (CEOs). Here, we report metabolome analysis of Citrus x sinensis (CS) reticulata (CR). In total, 793 metabolites were detected CS CR peels, which 242 differentially accumulated. The grouped into 12 ...

Abstract Citrus fruit quality is defined as the combination of physical and chemical traits; some which may change during ripening phase, e.g., acidity sugar content. A clear understanding their genetic control would be very helpful for marker-assisted breeding programs especially with regard to juvenile phase reproductive features that hamper selection improved hybrids. study was thus performe...

Soil arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form a mutualistic symbiosis with plant roots and produce many benefits on host plants under potted conditions, while field inoculation of AM citrus (a woody plant) has been rarely reported. The present study aimed to analyze the changes in growth, root vitality, fruit quality Citrus reticulata Blanco var. Ponkan mandarin cv. Jinshuigan grafted Poncirus tr...

The mandarin is an important fruit crop worldwide, and ‘Xinyu mandarin’—a local Citrus reticulata variety—is widely cultivated in Jiangxi Province, China. Autopolyploidy has frequently been used for the improvement of varieties. In a previous study, we identified tetraploid (4X) material mandarin’ generated from its diploid (2X) mother seedling via spontaneous mutation. However, physiological m...

The Asian citrus psyllid vectors bacteria responsible for a serious citrus disease known as huanglongbing (also known as citrus greening). Many research endeavors on huanglongbing are dependent on a steady supply of Asian citrus psyllid, which can be facilitated using laboratory or greenhouse colonies maintained on an Asian citrus psyllid host plant. The choice of a plant species may be influen...
