Description:
"There are two cultivars of naturally occuring chimeras [in Japan], Kobayashi Mikan and Minkoji Unshu, and their characteristics have been maintained for over 70 years in Japan. Both are considered to be periclinal chimeras that develop spontaneously at the graft union...'Kinkoji Unshu' consists of L-1 from 'Satsuma' mandarin (C. unshiu) and L-2/L-3 from 'Kinkoji' (C. obovoidea)" (Ueno and Nishiura, 1976 quoted in Sugawara et al, 2002).
