citrus
Citrus is a genus of flowering trees and shrubs in the Rutaceae family whose fruits—including oranges, lemons, grapefruits, and limes—have been shaped through extensive natural and human-driven hybridization. This makes citrus a compelling model for studying plant genetics, hybridization dynamics, and cultivar diversification. Research into citrus also informs broader understanding of fruit development, disease resistance, and agricultural breeding strategies applicable across flowering plant species.
