''New Citrus Variety 'Jedae mandarin'

摘要

The present invention relates to Jedae satsuma mandarin, which is a novel variety of a mutant satsuma mandarin citrus. A novel mutant citrus plant was bred by emitting gamma rays at a bud on a branch of an early-ripening satsuma mandarin of C. unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa-wase, grafting the same and subjecting the same to asexual reproduction, resulting in a very close resemblance with the C. unshiu Marc. cv. Miyagawa-wase with respect to flowering, bearing fruit, a sweetness/acidity value, and the like, but the pericarp of the fruit is not smooth and the amount of flavonoid ingredients is changed, and thus the present invention can be used as a novel variety having high economic value.
