Résumé

This book in the "Crop production science in horticulture series" provides a broad survey of all aspects of tropical fruit production and usage. It begins by defining the climate and soils of the tropics and outlining the general principles of cultivation and postharvest handling. Each type of fruit is then examined (annonas, avocado, banana, carambola, guava, litchi, longan and rambutan, mango, papaya, passion-fruit, pineapple and other Asian and American tropical fruit) in terms of botany, origin and distribution, ecology, genetics and cultivar development, culturing practices, pests and diseases, harvest and postharvest handling and utilization. Finally, fruits which have potential for future development are considered.
