മധുരനാരകം ( സിട്രസ് × പാരഡിസി ) എന്ന നാരകവംശത്തിലെ താരതമ്യേന വലുതും പുളിയുള്ളതും പാതി മധുരമുള്ളതുമായ ഒരിനം നാരകപ്പഴമാണ് മധുരനാരങ്ങ.

പതിനേഴാം നൂറ്റാണ്ടിൽ ഏഷ്യയിൽ നിന്ന് അവതരിപ്പിച്ച മധുരനാരങ്ങ ഓറഞ്ചിന്റേയും കമ്പിളിനാരങ്ങയുടെയും സങ്കരയിനം പഴമാണ്. ^[1] വിലക്കപ്പെട്ട പഴം എന്നൊരു ചെല്ലപ്പേരുകൂടെ മധുരനാരങ്ങക്ക് ഉണ്ട്.. ^[2] മുൻകാലങ്ങളിൽ ഇതിനെ ഓറഞ്ച് നാരങ്ങ എന്നാണ് വിളിച്ചിരുന്നത്, ^[3] എന്നാൽ ആ പദം ഇപ്പോൾ സിട്രസ് മാക്സിമയുടെ പൊതുനാമമായി ഉപയോഗിക്കുന്നു. ^[4]

വിയറ്റ്നാം, യുണൈറ്റഡ് സ്റ്റേറ്റ്സ്, മെക്സിക്കോ എന്നിവിടങ്ങളിലാണ്മ മധുരനാരങ്ങ കൂടുതലായും ഉൽപ്പാതിപ്പിക്കുന്നത്.

Forbidden-Fruit-Tree

The Trunk, Leaves, and Flowers of this Tree, very much resemble
those of the Orange-tree.
The Fruit, when ripe, is something longer and larger than the largest
Orange; and exceeds, in the Delicacy of its Taste, the Fruit of every
Tree in this or any of our neighbouring Islands.
It hath somewhat of the Taste of a Shaddock; but far exceeds that, as
well as the best Orange, in its delicious Taste and Flavour.

—Description from Hughes' 1750 Natural History of Barbados

This fruit is believed to have originated in Barbados as a natural cross between sweet orange (C. sinesis) and pomelo (C. grandis), both of which originated in Asia and were introduced by Europeans in the 17th century. The grapefruit first appeared as an illustration entitled 'The Forbidden Fruit Tree' in The Natural History of Barbados (1750) by Rev. Griffith Hughes. This accords with the scientific name, which literally is 'citrus of paradise'. The fruit seems to have been fairly commonly available around that time, since George Washington in his Barbados Journal (1750-1751) mentions 'the Forbidden Fruit' as one of the local fruit available at a dinner party he attended. The plant was later described in the 1837 Flora of Jamaica as the Barbados Grapefruit. The historical arguments and experimental work on leaf enzymes and oils from possible parents all support a Barbadian origin for the fruit.
