Richard E Litz9780851996622, 0-85199-662-0

This book is a comprehensive reference work on our current knowledge of the biotechnology of all the major temperate, sub-tropical and tropical fruit and nut crops of the world. It is in part a new edition of Biotechnology of Perennial Fruit Crops$ (eds Hammerschlag and Litz, CABI, 1992), but differs from the previous book by covering more fruit crops as well as nuts, and also omitting general methods chapters. Contributors are leading researchers from the Americas, Europe, Australasia and Africa.
