[Ads-l] limequat

[Benjamin Barrett]

Not on the Oxford Dictionary site. Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limequat) cites a hybridization date of 1909. The citation URL is old; the new one is http://citruspages.free.fr/kumquats.html#limequat <http://citruspages.free.fr/kumquats.html#limequat>, where it says the limequat was named and described in 1913.

I located the citation at http://bit.ly/1qEhvXY <http://bit.ly/1qEhvXY>. “The Fundamentals of Crop Improvement” by W. T. Swingle, 1913 in _Miscellaneous Papers_.
