Cover Story: 'Aliza' is a new pomelo × mandarin hybrid developed by the Israeli citrus breeding program. 'Aliza' fruits are about the size of grapefruits, but have a thinner peel, a unique yellowish/golden color, are completely seedless and have an especially high juice content. Sensory analyses involving consumer acceptance and preference tests, descriptive tests and electronic tongue revealed that the flavor of 'Aliza' fruits is different and highly preferred as compared to other citrus species. Overall, 'Aliza' fruits are distinguished by their unique quality and flavor and can be considered a new commercial type of citrus fruit. View this paper
