Somatic hybridization between diploid Poncirus and Citrus improves natural chilling and light stress tolerances compared with equivalent doubled-diploid genotypes
2018-06-01
Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: The genome doubling of the allotetraploid somatic hybrid can confer greater tolerance to cold and light stress than the diploid parents and their respective tetraploid. Allopolyploids are generally known to display broader adaptation to abiotic stresses than their parental diploid species. In the Mediterranean area, Citrus species are subjected to abiotic constraints such as low temperature and high r...
