Comparative morphometric and anatomical aspects of three Citrus l. Species (Rutaceae) fruits
Journal Title: Annals of West University of Timisoara, ser. Biology - Year 2016, Vol 19, Issue 1
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to present the morphometric and anatomical features of three species of Citrus L. fruits: Citrus reticulata Blanco, Citrus× sinensis Osbeck and Citrus maragarita Lour. Morphometrically were determined the length, width, area and volume for 10 fruits of each species. Anatomically, were analyzed the exocarp and mesocarp tissues, including the secretory cavities and endocarp components, respectively the number of carpels (segments) and the length of the juice vesicles. The studied species fruits disclose both similarities and differences concerning their morphometric and anatomical features.
