LA INTRODUCCIÓN DE LOS CÍTRICOS CULTIVADOS EN EUROPA VÍA EL NORTE DE ÁFRICA Y LA PENÍNSULA IBÉRICA.
- نبذة مختصرة :
The circumstances concerning the diffusion of the main cultivated citrus from their places of origin in Asia are studied here, showing that the citron (Citrus medica L.) was the only one knew in Ancient times in Europe, while the lemon (C. limon [L.] Osbeck), lime (C. aurantiifolia [Christm.] Swingle), pomelo (C. maxima [Burm.] Merr.) and sour orange (C. x aurantium L.) were introduced to Europe by the Muslims via the Iberian Peninsula and Sicily, and that the grapefruit (C. paradisi Macfad.), mandarin (C. reticulata Blanco) and sweet orange (C. x aurantium L.) arrived to the West between the fifteenth and nineteenth centuries as a result of the trade with the British and Portuguese colonies.

Se estudian aquí ias circunstancias referentes a la difusión de los principales cítricos cultivados desde sus lugares de origen en Asia, mostrando que en la antigüedad únicamente se conocía en Europa el cidro (Citrus medica L.), que el limón (C. limon [L.] Osbeck), la lima (C. aurantiifolia [Christm.] Swingle), la zamboa (C. maxima [Burm.] Merr.) y la naranja amarga (C. x aurantium L.) fueron introducidos en Europa por los musulmanes a través de la Península Ibérica y Sicilia, y que el pomelo (C. paradisi Macfad.), la mandarina (C. reticulata Blanco) y la naranja dulce (C. x aurantium L.) llegaron a Occidente entre los siglos XV y XIX como resultado del comercio con las colonias británicas y portuguesas.
