*FAOSTAT of the United Nations, which groups these fruits together in their data Production of clementines, tangerines, mandarins and satsumas* in 2016 Clementine di Calabria, another Italian PGI variety, grown in the Calabria region.They have a sweet flavour and an intense aroma. Clementine del Golfo di Taranto, a (practically) seedless Italian cultivar given Protected geographical indication (PGI) status by the European Union, produced around the Gulf of Taranto.It produces seedless fruit that is larger than the Fina, but less sweet. Also widely planted in California, where it matures from October to December. A mutation of the Fina variety, Nules is the most widely planted clementine in Spain, where it matures from mid-November to mid to late-January. Clemenules or Nules – A popular, seedless, easy to peel clementine with a very pleasing sweet flavor.Fina, a Spanish cultivar originally grown on a bitter orange rootstock that gave it superb flavor, but due to disease vulnerability is now grown on a broader range of rootstocks, affecting the flavor profile.Algerian, the original Rodier cultivar.Spanish clementine, possibly the Fina cultivar They have a sweet taste, as suggested by their name, but it is not overbearing and quite mild. They are slightly smaller than "common" clementines and are probably idealized for lunchboxes. Unlike other Clementine varieties, they usually have 10 slices. Sweetclems - are typically grown in Spain and northern Africa.Monreal clementines are on average larger than the seedless variety, has a more abundant bloom and is sweeter. The Monreal clementine can self-pollinate and has seeds. In order to be pollinated, it needs to be cross-pollinated.
The seedless Clementine tree is self-incompatible which is why the fruit has so few or no seeds. Common Clementines are very similar to the Monreal type the two types are virtually identical in terms of tree specifics. Seedless versions of the clementine are known as the common type (seedless or practically seedless). In 2006, to prevent this, growers such as Paramount Citrus in California threatened to sue local beekeepers to keep bees away from their crops. Ĭlementines lose their desirable seedless characteristic when they are cross-pollinated with other fruit. It was introduced into California commercial agriculture in 1914, though it was grown at the Citrus Research Center (now part of the University of California, Riverside) as early as 1909. As a result, the tastiest Clementines are from these hot regions. These regions such as North Africa, Mediterranean basin, and California, also favor maximizing the Clementine size and quality. However, in regions of high total heat, the Clementine bears fruit early only slightly later than satsuma mandarins. Cultivation Ĭlementines differ from other citrus in having lower heat requirement, which means the tolerance to fruit maturity and sensitivity to unfavorable conditions during the flowering and fruit-setting period is higher. Clementines resemble other citrus varieties such as the satsuma and tangerines. There are three types of clementines: seedless clementines, clementines (maximum of 10 seeds), and Monreal (more than 10 seeds). Some sources have attributed an earlier origin for the hybrid, pointing to similar fruit native to the provinces of Guangxi and Guangdong in present-day China, but these are likely distinct mandarin hybrids, and genomic analysis of the clementine has shown it to have arisen from a cross between a sweet orange ( Citrus × sinensis) and the Mediterranean willowleaf mandarin ( Citrus × deliciosa), consistent with Algerian origin. The clementine is a spontaneous citrus hybrid that arose in the late 19th century in Misserghin, Algeria, in the garden of the orphanage of the French Missionary Brother Clément Rodier, for whom it would be formally named in 1902.
