(Hodgson, 1967).ġ986, EMN: Monoembryonic.
Chapot (1963) "has refuted it with convinving evidence" (Hodgson, 1967), concluding that 'Clementine' is indistinguishable from and probably identical to 'Canton' mandarin. However, this was disputed by Webber (1943) and Tanaka (1954). Trabut (1902a, 1902b, 1926) concluded that the seed parent was the common 'Mediterranean' mandarin ( C. Trabut noticed the plant, selected it, and suggested the name 'Clementine' after Brother Clement (Chapot, 1963). Fawcett's #134, Florida collection, 1914.ħ/2007, RRK: 'Clementine' originated as a chance mandarin seedling in the gardens of an orphanage and so its parentage is not definitively known.
