It originated from a cross between 'Kusaie lime' x Myrtle-leaf orange, made in 1980 at the Okitsu Branch of the Fruit Tree Research Station to study the inheritance of dwarfism from Myrtle-leaf orange. It was selected as a promising ornamental citrus suitable as a pot plant and a garden tree. It was registered as No. 16773 under the Seed and Seedlings Law of Japan on March 18, 2008. The tree has weak vigor and its growth habit is between upright and spreading. It seems resistant to citrus scab and citrus canker. Its twigs, leaves, flowers and fruit are very small as a citrus plant and the tree bears abundant flowers. The fruit develops color in March and remains attached to the tree for about two years. Each fruit weighs about 12g and is globose in shape. The rind is reddish orange in color and about 2.5 mm thick. The rind percentage is high. The surface texture of the fruit is somewhat coarse. The flesh is yellowish orange in color and not juicy. The fruit is inedible because it is small and very acid and the flesh percentage is small. This cultivar can grow outdoors in citrus-growing areas in Japan. If the cultivar is grown as a pot plant and moved indoors in winter, it can be grown more widely .}, pages = {1--6}, title = {鉢物と庭木に向く観賞用カンキツ新品種 'ミニマートル1号'}, volume = {12}, year = {2011}, yomi = {ヨシダ, トシオ and ネスミ, ヒロヒサ and ウエノ, イサム and イトウ, ユウジ and ヨシオカ, テルタカ} }
