A classic of reportage, Oranges was first conceived as a short magazine article about oranges and orange juice, but the author kept encountering so much irresistible information that he eventually found that he had in fact written a book. It contains sketches of orange growers, orange botanists, orange pickers, orange packers, early settlers on Florida's Indian River, the first orange barons, modern concentrate makers, and a fascinating profile of Ben Hill Griffin of Frostproof, Florida who may be the last of the individual orange barons. McPhee's astonishing book has an almost narrative progression, is immensely readable, and is frequently amusing. Louis XIV hung tapestries of oranges in the halls of Versailles, because oranges and orange trees were the symbols of his nature and his reign. This book, in a sense, is a tapestry of oranges, too—with elements in it that range from the great orangeries of European monarchs to a custom of people in the modern Caribbean who split oranges and clean floors with them, one half in each hand.

The Genus Citrus presents the enormous amount of new knowledge that has been generated in recent years on nearly all topics related to citrus. Beginning with an overview of the fundamental principles and understanding of citrus biology and behavior, the book provides a comprehensive view from Citrus evolution to current market importance. Reporting on new insights supported by the elucidation of the citrus genome sequence, it presents groundbreaking theories and fills in previous knowledge gaps. Because citrus is among the most difficult plants to improve through traditional breeding, citrus researchers, institutions and industries must quickly learn to adapt to new developments, knowledge and technologies to address the biological constraints of a unique fruit-tree such as citrus. Despite the challenges of working with citrus, tremendous progress has been made, mostly through advances in molecular biology and genomics. This book is valuable for all those involved with researching and advancing, producing, processing, and delivering citrus products. - Includes the most current research on citrus genomic information - Provides the first detailed description of citrus origin, a new proposal for citrus taxonomy, and a redefinition of the genus Citrus - Details citrus challenges including climate change, global disease impacts, and plant improvement strategies

The First Edition of this book was published 20 years ago. On an international level, it is still well used by both citrus packers, growers and students. The many changes in citrus industries around the world are found in this book. New subjects are included in this second edition of Fresh Citrus Fruits, such as Food Safety Program, and Organic Fresh Fruit. Likewise, much of the material under old chapter headings has been updated or is completely new.Color plates have been added to the book for the identification of postharvest diseases, physiological disorders, citrus canker and Mediterranean Fruit Fly. Also, a fruit color-add test is illustrated as a color plate. Having these color illustrations in the book will aid readers in identifying problems.The presence of Citrus Canker in Florida and Australia made the Plant Pest Regulations a difficult chapter to complete. Likewise, the Pesticide Tolerances chapter addresses a constantly changing subject. In these and other chapters the reader will find Internet addresses which can provide continually updated information.
