Oroblanco is a very popular grapefruit variety, praised for its sweetness. Was developed by James W. Cameron together with Robert K. Soost.

Together with Robert Soost he developed the Oroblanco[2] and Melogold grapefruits, and the encore and pixie[3] mandarins,[4] which turned out to be of major importance.[5] Since 1944, it have been developed with his attendance, 484 hybrid citrus seedlings.[6]

Cameron was a co-author on volume II of The Citrus Industry.[7]

Academic writings

gollark: No, that's just removing all the "bad" stuff manually.
gollark: Maybe it *would* be possible to improve the quality through rebranding and relabelling of it somehow.
