Abstract:
The highly-demanded commercial citrus fruits of family Rutaceae arose primarily through sexual hybridization between the four ancestral taxa generating a range of nothospecies. The diversity of phenotypic traits in these cultivable groups was mainly due to somatic mutations fixed either by apomixis present in Citrus species or grafting for clonal propagation, leaving behind very scanty evidence to study the process of citrus domestication apart from its genealogy.
