The Mangshanyegan (Chinese: 莽山野柑; also known, possibly incorrectly, as the Mangshan mandarin) is a wild citrus fruit species or group of species.
Its taxonomy and scientific name are an area of active research; it is called Citrus mangshanensis and Citrus nobilis Lauriro. It is native to mountain forests in Mangshan, Hunan province, China, where it was first reported in the 1980s.[2][3] It is morphologically similar to cultivated Mandarin oranges, but is now known to be genetically distinct from both mandarins and pummelos.[1]
Citrus crops are often propagated asexually, so they have low genetic diversity.[4] The mangshanyegan is thus potentially important as a source of diversity for citrus breeders.
