Why is it important?
Seedless lemon cultivars of fruit quality and bio-chemical properties have been affected differently;some cultivars have presented no changes compared to the control, while other cultivars have shown significant differences
Perspectives
Budwood irradiation is a suitable technique to improve cultivars, produce seedless cultivars and raise the content of health-promoting compounds.
