Unreduced megagametophyte production in lemon occurs via three meiotic mechanisms, predominantly second-division restitution [PDF]
Unreduced (2n) gametes have played a pivotal role in polyploid plant evolution and are useful for sexual polyploid breeding in various species, particularly for developing new seedless citrus varieties.

Hexyl gallate for the control of citrus canker caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp citri
We evaluated hexyl gallate (G6) as an alternative to copper compounds for citrus plant protection. G6 was able to protect citrus nursery trees against Xanthomonas citri infection, and it is safe for tissue culture cell lines. This study demonstrated that G6 is a promising candidate for the development and use in citrus canker management.
