With the use of modern molecular and biotechnological tools, the task of improving yield in tree crops is foremost in the acumen of future global agricultural research for sustainable production. This 2-volume book series deals with both tropical and temperate tree crop species, and represents an effort toward compilation of all available worldwide research on these subjects.
This volume covers fruits and nuts banana, mango, guava, papaya, grape, date palm, litchi, avocado, and cashew , oil crops coconut, oil palm and olive , industrial crops rubber and beverages coffee, tea and cocoa.
The contributing authors are internationally-known specialists who provide first hand comprehensive knowledge. All contributory book chapters have been peer reviewed and revised accordingly. Additionally, shrinkage of cultivable land and the pressure of growing demand have resulted in growth of tree crops under marginal conditions that call for concerted efforts for their genetic improvement.
Increased attention to the environment, sustainability and diet in recent years in turn magnifies the importance of study of these crops.
