Volume 2 of this revised edition of Tropical Fruits examines the more
specialist tropical fruits such as guava, durian, mangosteen, passion
fruits and palm fruits. With growing interest in the cultivation,
production, study, sales and marketability of these specialist fruits,
this is a timely and informative book. Topics like botany, soil and
climate requirements, cultivar development, world production and
harvesting and postharvest handling are covered in-depth for each crop.
This practical and accessible book is an ideal text for horticulture
academics, researchers, extension workers, students, breeders, growers
and policy makers.
