Abstract excerpt
Gamma radiation represents an alternative for improving genotypes for which breeding through hybridization involves many difficulties because of their complex reproductive biology, as in the case of citrus. In this study in vitro and ex vitro mutagenesis was induced by gamma radiation in several citrus species ('Alemow' and sour orange as citrus rootstocks, lemon cv. 'Fino 49' and 'Verna 51', mandarin cv. 'Nova'...
