Each chapter of the book covers all earlier realized critical gaps where latest information is available for adoption. This book provides a broad survey of different aspects of 51 fruits regarding their production and usage. It begins by defining the Introduction and importance; Origin, distribution and systematics; Ecological requirements; Species, commercial varieties and rootstocks; Propagation and planting; Tree architecture and pruning; Flowering physiology; Nutrition, water management and abiotic stresses; Role of bio-regulators; Fruit quality enhancement techniques; Physiological disorders and their management; Major diseases, insect- pests and their management; and Harvesting and storage of fruits/nuts. Some of the emerging minor or future fruit crops with immense functional/nutraceautical food values are also dealt in detail. I am sure the book makes an essential reading for students and professionals in horticulture, food science, economic botany, home science etc.
