The Clauseneae (Aurantioideae, Rutaceae) is a tribe in the Citrus family that, although economically important as it contains the culinary and medicinally-useful curry tree (Bergera koenigii), has been relatively understudied. Due to the recent significant taxonomic changes made to this tribe, a closer inspection of the genetic relationships among its genera has been warranted. Whole genome skimmi ...

Sweetness and flavour are desirable attributes used for quality control and assurance of citrus fruit, which are largely determined by total soluble solids (TSS), titrable acidity (TA) and TSS: TA ratio. However, the accuracies of TSS, TA and TSS: TA as flavour indices have been recently criticised. BrimA (Brix minus acids), on the other hand, is an accurate organoleptic parameter that has been sh ...

Abstract:
... The highly invasive oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel), has been declared present in the northern parts of South Africa since 2013. A study was thus initiated in July 2014 to determine the host range and field population of the pest species in the region. Fruit were collected from commercial fruit production, interface (smaller commercial blocks surrounded by natural savannah vegetat ...

The citrus leaf roller (CLR), Archips rosanus , a threatening pest of leaves and fruitlets on fruit trees, which in recent years has led to considerable damage to different citrus trees in some parts of the Mazandaran province of Iran. Insect activity on citrus trees causes the growth of buds and leaves to stop and foliage to dry. Pest oviposition as egg masses occurs on the host tree’s trunk. Egg ...
