“…Fruits os Citrus limetta had the following characteristics: weight 325.6 g ± 82.6; length 84.5 mm ± 8.9; diameter 87.2 mm ± 8.4 and hue angle of color of the epidermis 92.6° ± 10.4, the closer the hue angle is to 90° on color scale indicates more intense yellow color (KONiCA MiNOLTA, 2020) and an average number of 16.5 ± 5.5 seeds per fruit. These characteristics are similar to that described by GOMES et al (2020) in a study of the genetic diversity of this species.…”

This research studied the morphology of seeds and seedlings, in addition to obtaining information about the type and time of germination of sweet lemon seeds in five substrates (on blotting paper, between blotting paper, on washed sterilized sand, between washed sterilized sand and in paper roll). C. limetta seeds were measured, and external description was performed. Afterwards, sown in the sand and kept at 25 ºC to monitoring germination and morphological description of the resulting seedlings. A second experiment was evaluated for substrate efficiency: paper roll, on and between paper, on and between sand in the germination of C. limetta seeds. Speed index, average time and relative frequency of germination were evaluated. In addition, date of the first and last germination count was established. Treatment averages were compared using the Tukey test at 5% probability. C. limetta seeds are ovoid, slightly wrinkled and polyembryonic. Germination is hypogeal, cryptocotylar or phanerocotylar. The seedlings have leathery eophylls with simple leaves, elliptical shape or close to the elliptical, tending to ovate. It has a pivoting root system that is colored yellow to cream with the presence of secondary roots. The average germination time is between 18 and 22 days. The substrate indicated for seed germination is on paper.

“…Skin and pulp color were evaluated using the coordinates L* (degree of lightness), a* (red), b* (yellow), C* (Chroma), and h° (hue angle [arctan b*/a*]), measured by a digital colorimeter at two spots (Konica Minolta® CR-10, Japan). The L* value represents the brightness of the sample, ranging from 0 (least luminous) to 100 (most luminous); a* represents green (from 0 to -60) and red (from 0 to +60) colors; b* represents the yellow color (from 0 to +60); C* represents color saturation; and h° is the hue angle (from 0 to 360°), indicating the quadrant in which the sample color is located (11).…”

The correlation between physical and chemical attributes of fruits can serve as indicators for the ideal harvest time and function as selection criteria to enhance the management and productivity of crops. This study aimed to investigate the correlations among physical and chemical properties of Cortibel guava fruits grown in the Brazilian Cerrado. Parameters assessed included skin and pulp color, weight, diameter, length, total soluble solids, titratable acidity, and the ratio of these characteristics. Data were analyzed using Pearson's linear correlation with a significance level of P < 0.05. Several physical and chemical properties of the fruits exhibited significant correlations. The highest correlation coefficients were observed between weight and fruit diameter, as well as between hue angle of the skin and skin lightness. The properties of Cortibel guava fruits cultivated in the Brazilian Cerrado exhibit significant correlations. These findings enable the utilization of straightforward parameters in the selection processes of Cortibel guava for breeding objectives. Highlights: Guava is a significant crop with high economic value. The characterization of fruits assists in selecting genotypes with desirable commercial properties. Cortibel guava fruits exhibited significant correlations between some physical and chemical characteristics. The correlations between the physical and chemical characteristics of the fruits allow the selection of materials of interest for breeding.

“…At the cluster B, the accessions of CL-3 (Lemon Jumbo) and CL-2 (Cai Kahuripan), CL-7 (Lime Bearr) and CL-5 (Uereka), also CL-8 (Nimas/ a type of local sweet lemon) and CL-9 (Lemon Kalsel) are in the same genetic level, respectively. According to [25] sweet lemon is also known as Citrus limetta. Because it has a high level of genetic similarity (86.8%) with Lemon Kalsel/CL-9 (Table 5), it is suspected that this species was originated from a natural cross with this lemon.…”

Despite the fact that lime and lemon groups have been collected as germplasm in the Indonesian Citrus and Subtropical Research Institute, a limited amount of research has been conducted on the identification and evaluation of these species. This study aimed to evaluate the morphological, anatomy, genetic polymorphism, and relationships among 16 lime and lemon accessions based on six ISSR markers. The research was conducted at Punten Experimental Garden, Batu, East Java, Indonesia from January to December 2021 in order to describe the morphology and anatomy characteristics. The results showed that 109 DNA bands were considered for the ISSR analysis, of which 88.1% were polymorphic. The dendrogram showed that the accessions were separated into two main groups at a coefficient of 0.62. The first group was divided into three clusters, i.e. A, B, and C consist of introduced varieties, most of the local lemons, and limes, respectively. The second group has only a single member (Limo Kwit). The closest genetic distances were between Cai Kahuripan and Lemon Jumbo (88.1%) and Uereka with Lime Bearr (88.3%). In contrast, the lowest ones were Montaji with Lemo Kwit (52.9%) and Lemon Swanggi with Jari Buda (51.2%). In general, genetic traits reflected in existing clusters contributed to differences in their morphology and anatomy of plants. It is assumed that the local accession of Lemo Kwit is a hybrid of subgenus papeda, so it is separated from the lime and lemon groups that belong to Cluster II. This finding is very useful for breeding programs in Indonesia.
