Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of navel orange plant, named Powell Late Navel, characterized by late maturing habits when grown in the inland citrus areas of New South Wales, Australia, and further characterized by its seedless deep orange fruit, the juice of which is characterized by the absence of the bitter taste associated with limionin levels which normally develop after navel oranges are juiced.
