..................................................................................... In botany the fruit of citrus fruits is called hesperidium. The shape varies from rounded, sometimes flattened at the poles, to an elongated and pointed ovoid.. The peel is made up of a rough outer layer, rarely smooth, colored from yellow to orange to red, and a white and spongy inner layer called albedo which can be more or less thick.. In the fresh state, the peel is usually not eaten with the fruit, but it is edible, so it is widely used in cooking. (in this use either the whole peel or the rind is used). In addition, it is of considerable importance in the industrial exploitation of citrus fruits.. The peeled fruit is made up of segments, each wrapped in its own membrane to protect a set of very juicy thread-like particles.. The seeds are housed inside the segments and are very leathery. Since they are not edible in any way, seedless varieties of citrus fruits are preferably produced. All citrus fruits are rich in vitamins, especially those of groups C and P.. They are mainly consumed fresh or in preparations such as jams, candied fruit, drinks. They are very important for the extraction of essential oils, pectins, citric acid and other derivatives. CrossbreedingThe possibilities of hybridization of citrus fruits are very high. Most of the genera and practically all the known species are in fact the results of fortunate hybridizations which have maintained their initial properties over time.. All citrus fruits except mandarin, pomelo and citron are ancient hybrids.. Crosses between mandarin and various types of orange, from the mandarin orange to the clementine and the tangerine, have been particularly successful. Among the crosses on the market we can mention the mapo, the lipo, the lice, the pompìa, the limo, the oroblanco, the tacle and other products of considerable interest but with uncertain possibility of constant development. The term citrus refers to cultivated plants belonging to the Citrus genus of the Aurantioideae subfamily (Rutaceae family) and their fruits. The subfamily includes defined and stable species, but also many varieties and natural mutations, in the inflorescence as well as in the fruits, so that various types of citrus fruits are found in various parts of the world.. In addition, numerous hybrids have been developed, some of which have non-durable characteristics, which means they are only on the market for relatively short periods of time. The genealogy of citrus fruits has always been the subject of study.. The recent sequencing of the genome of some species has allowed us to reconstruct the complex kinship relationships that have given rise, through hybridization, to all the other varieties.. It has emerged that almost all citrus fruits are the result of crossbreeding between just three species.: citron, mandarin and pomelo.Origin and distributionAll Citrus fruits are native to India and the Far East. Today citrus fruits also grow wild in Indonesia, Malaysia, New Guinea and the Philippines.. The various species reached Europe at different times. It seems that the first was the cedar, well known among the ancient Romans as the Persian apple.. It is documented that these people already knew, in the 1st century, the lemon and the bitter orange.. The cultivation of sweet oranges was introduced by the Portuguese in the 16th century, while the acquisition of mandarins dates back to the 19th century. Citrus fruits are now widely cultivated on all continents in temperate and subtropical zones.. The world's leading producer is China, with over 25% of the market, followed by Brazil (15%), from the USA and India, both with a share of around 8% (FAO data 2016). In Europe, after Spain, which holds 5% of the world's citrus production, comes Italy, with a share of around 2%, consisting mainly of oranges, lemons, mandarins, clementines, bergamots, chinottos.. Here the cultivated areas are concentrated in the southern regions: approximately two thirds of the national production takes place in Sicily and approximately a quarter in Calabria while Campania, Puglia, Basilicata and Sardinia hold the residual shares.DescriptionWith a few exceptions (example trifoliate orange Citrus trifoliata) Citrus fruits are evergreen plants. The leaves are lanceolate or elliptical, entire, leathery, articulated on the petiole. They look like simple leaves, but they are actually the central leaf of an ancient set of three leaflets that were lost with the development; only the Poncirus retains the original three-unit form. In seed plants there are more or less large thorns next to the leaves, but plants that are grown in orchards usually lose them.. However, if a citrus fruit is abandoned and becomes wild, it will grow thorns again.FlowersThe flowers are called orange blossoms and grow in corymbose inflorescences or solitary. The corolla with free petals contains many stamens; the pistil has an ovary with at least five lodges rich in ovules. Citrus flowers are generally white, although some species have variously colored buds, so that the petals sometimes retain slight shades of color at the base.. Lemon and citron flowers generally have a purple hue.. Depending on the species, the flowers are of variable size, and can measure from 1 to 5 cm in diameter.. They are all very fragrant. In the picture the so-called "zest" of an orange. This ingredient is obtained by scraping the outer peel of the citrus fruit (usually orange, lemon, lime or citron) widely used in cooking for example as a condiment for jams, puddings, biscuits, liqueurs and sweets. These citrus flowers are collected by bees, from which a good scented monofloral honey is obtained, for which they are good honey plants..
