'Encore' Mandarin
Encore' mandarin is a citrus cultivar. This cultivar is a hybrid between two mandarins (King x Willowleaf), obtained by H.B. Frost, in California. It began to be commercialized from 1965. It is cultivated in Japan, in greenhouses. In Portugal, its area has increased due to the high prices of the fruits, but at the moment it is stabilized or diminishing. The tree has a characteristic aspect, given by the branches that form an acute angle with the central axis of the tree, without observing pending branches. The fruit is of excellent internal quality, although its vitamin C content is relatively low when compared to an orange. Each fruit can contain 25 or more seeds. In some orchards, the number of seeds is reduced. It has a great tendency to alternate bearing. In the year of high harvest presents low levels of potassium. The fruit can even kill the branches because it is a very strong (the strongest) sink. Sometimes fruit present peel pitting, which is a problem for its commerci ...

Tangor
The tangor (''C. reticulata'' × ''C. sinensis'') is a citrus fruit hybrid of the mandarin orange (''Citrus reticulata'') and the sweet orange (''Citrus sinensis''). The name "tangor" is a formation from the "tang" of tangerine and the "or" of "orange." Also called the temple orange, its thick rind is easy to peel and its bright orange pulp is sour-sweet and full-flavoured. Varieties Tangors are purposely bred or accidental hybrids of the sweet orange (''Citrus sinensis'') and the mandarin (''Citrus reticulata''), producing several varieties. * 'Clementine' (Citrus × deliciosa, Willowleaf × unknown sweet orange) (a commercially important cultivar) * 'King' ("Cam sành, King of Siam"; formerly ''Citrus nobilis'') * 'Tsunonozomi' (Kiyomi x 'Encore' mandarin, Encore) * 'Murcott (fruit), Murcott' ("honey Murcott"; "Murcott honey orange"; "red"; "big red") * 'Ortanique' (originally found in Jamaica, the name comes from the words "orange", "tangerine", and "unique").

Reikou
is a cultivar of tangor. It is a citrus hybrid of a hybrid of Kiyomi and Encore (Kiyomi–Encore No. 5) and Murcott tangor. Description The fruit can be easily peeled by hand. It has a sugar content of between 12% and 13%, with some fruits reaching 15%. The fruit weighs around , relatively large for a tangor, and is a reddish-orange colour. It fruits in late January. It does not produce pollen, so it must be pollinated by another species of citrus. Its systematic name is after Kuchinotsu, Nagasaki was a town located in Minamitakaki District, Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan. As of 2003, the town had an estimated population of 6,450 and a density of 646.29 persons per km2. The total area was 9.98 km2. On March 31, 2006, Kuchinotsu, along wi ... where it was bred. It was hybridized in 1984, with its name registered in 2004 and the variety registered in 2005. The first fruits came on sale in 2007.

Japanese Citrus
Japanese citrus fruits were first mentioned in the ''Kojiki'' and ''Nihonshoki'', compiled in the 700s, and the ''Man'yōshū'' and ''Kokin Wakashū'', poetry anthologies compiled in the 700s and 900s, mention the Tachibana orange as a subject of ''Waka (poetry), waka'' poetry and describe its use as a medicinal, ornamental, and incense plant. Throughout their history, the Japanese have created and cultivated various varieties of citrus fruits, taking advantage of the mild climate that is ideal for growing citrus. In particular, from the 1600s during the Edo period (1603–1868) to the present, various varieties of citrus fruits have been produced, including Citrus unshiu, Unshū, :ja:ナツミカン, Natsumikan, Hassaku, Iyokan, and Dekopon. At present, Unshū is the most widely grown in Japan, and various cultivars have been developed. At present, the largest citrus growing areas are located in the Prefectures of Japan, prefectures of Wakayama Prefecture, Wakayama, Shizuoka P ...

Citrus
''Citrus'' is a genus of flowering trees and shrubs in the family Rutaceae. Plants in the genus produce citrus fruits, including important crops such as oranges, mandarins, lemons, grapefruits, pomelos, and limes. ''Citrus'' is native to South Asia, East Asia, Southeast Asia, Melanesia, and Australia. Indigenous people in these areas have used and domesticated various species since ancient times. Its cultivation first spread into Micronesia and Polynesia through the Austronesian expansion (–1500 BCE). Later, it was spread to the Middle East and the Mediterranean () via the incense trade route, and from Europe to the Americas. Renowned for their highly fragrant aromas and complex flavor, citrus are among the most popular fruits in cultivation. With a propensity to hybridize between species, making their taxonomy complicated, there are numerous varieties encompassing a wide range of appearance and fruit flavors.

Fruit Trees
A fruit tree is a tree which bears fruit that is consumed or used by animals and humans. All trees that are flowering plants produce fruit, which are the ripened ovaries of flowers containing one or more seeds. In horticultural usage, the term "fruit tree" is limited to those that provide fruit for human food. Types of fruits are described and defined elsewhere (see Fruit), but would include "fruit" in a culinary sense, as well as some nut-bearing trees, such as walnuts. The scientific study and the cultivation of fruits is called pomology, which divides fruits into groups based on plant morphology and anatomy. Some of those groups are pome fruits, which include apples and pears, and stone fruits, which include peaches/nectarines, almonds, apricots, plums and cherries. Examples * Abiu * Almond * Amla (Indian gooseberry) * Apple * Apricot * Avocado * Bael * Ber (Indian plum) * Carambola (starfruit) * Cashew * Cherry * Citrus ( orange, lemon, lime, etc.) * Coconut ...

Edible Fruits
An edible item is any item that is safe for humans to eat. "Edible" is differentiated from "palatability, eatable" because it does not indicate how an item tastes, only whether it is fit to be eaten. Nonpoisonous items found in nature – such as some edible mushroom, mushrooms, insects as food, insects, edible seaweed, seaweed, and so forth – are referred to as edible. Processed items that normally are not ingested but are specially manufactured to be so, like edible underwear or edible packaging, are also labeled as edible. Edible items in nature Humans eat thousands of plant species; there may be as many as 75,000 edible species of angiosperms, of which perhaps 7,000 are often eaten. Edible plants found in nature include List of edible flowers, flowers, List of edible seeds, seeds, berry, berries, edible seaweed, seaweed, and List of edible cacti, cacti. Being able to identify the versions of these plants that are safe to eat is an important survival skills, survival skill. ...

Citrus Hybrids
Citrus taxonomy is the botanical classification of the species, varieties, cultivars, and graft hybrids within the genus ''Citrus'' and related genera, found in cultivation and in the wild. Citrus taxonomy is complex and controversial. Cultivated citrus are derived from various citrus species found in the wild. Some are only selections of the original wild types, many others are hybrids between two or more original species, and some are backcrossed hybrids between a hybrid and one of the hybrid's parent species. Citrus plants hybridize easily between species with completely different morphologies, and similar-looking citrus fruits may have quite different ancestries. Some differ only in disease resistance. Conversely, different-looking varieties may be nearly genetically identical, and differ only by a bud mutation. Genomic analysis of wild and domesticated citrus cultivars has suggested that the progenitor of modern citrus species expanded out of the Himalayan foothills in a ...
