Citrus × sinensis (sometimes written Citrus sinensis), a hybrid between pomelo (Citrus maxima) and mandarin (Citrus reticulata), also known as the sweet oranges, is a commonly cultivated species of orange that includes Valencia oranges, blood oranges and navel oranges. [1]
The orange fruit is an important agricultural product, used for both the juicy fruit pulp and the aromatic peel (rind). Orange blossoms (the flowers) are used in several different ways, as are the leaves and wood of the tree.
Orange fruit and leaf both are reported to contain indole alkaloids including N,N-DMT.[ citation needed]
Giant swallowtail caterpillars (Papilio cresphontes) cause serious damage to this crop, especially to young trees. [3]
