Book Temperate Fruit Crops in Warm Climates

Download or read book Temperate Fruit Crops in Warm Climates written by A. Erez and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a member of the working group (WG) on "Temperate Zone Fruit Trees in the Tropics and Subtropics" of the International Society for Horticulture, I was aware of the lack of readily available information needed in many warm-climate locations where temperate fruit crops are grown. The founder of this WG, Frank Dennis, Jr. , was motivated to encourage knowledge transfer by sharing knowledge with many developing countries. We shared his drive and in presenting this book we believe we are doing a service to all persons interested in temperate fruits, but especially to those in tropical and subtropical countries, many of which are developing countries interested in growing these crops and lacking the knowledge needed. In this book, we have collected information covering a variety of different aspects of growing temperate fruit crops in warm climates. As this is the first time such an evaluation of these species has been done, interesting and novel aspects of tree development and fruiting are presented, with stress on elements like dormancy and irrigation that are not of such basic concern in the natural of the temperate zones. We are living in a transition age; horticultural studies habitat are changing and expertise such as can be found in the array of participants in this book is probably not going to be easily found in the future. I hope that this book will broaden our understanding of the fruiting Temperate Zone tree in general and of its adaptation to warm climates, in particular.

Book excerpt: "This volume, Temperate Fruits: Production, Processing, and Marketing, presents the latest pomological research on the production, postharvest handling, processing and storage, and information on marketing for a selection of temperate fruits. These include apple, pear, quince, peach, plum, sweet cherry, kiwifruit, strawberry, mulberry, and chestnut. With chapters from fruit experts from different countries of the world, the book provides the latest information on the effect of climate change on fruit production, organic fruit growing and advanced fruit breeding, the nutraceutical value and bioactive compounds in fruits and their role in human health, and new and advanced methods of fruit production. Topics include microirrigation, sustainable nutrient management, crop protection and plant heath management, and farm mechanization. The volume considers crop diversity, species variability and conservation strategies, production technology, plant architecture management, plant propagation and nutrition management, organic farming, dynamics in breeding and marketing of fruit crops, postharvest management and processed food production of fruit crops, and crop protection and plant health management. The book looks at the advancements in agro-techniques, timely harvests, and proper postharvest handling and care that have paved the way for enhanced market share of fruit crops. It also considers the extreme challenges of climate vagaries, erratic rainfall, drought, rapid urbanization, particularly in South Asia, that have affected the major fruit-producing belt, as well as other challenges, such as land degradation, long-term use of inorganic inputs, land fertility depletion, vulnerabilities of pest and diseases and more.

Book Systematic Pomology  Vol  1 2   Set

Download or read book Systematic Pomology Vol 1 2 Set written by O.P. Pareek and published by Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 910 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is aimed to be a treatise on the ‘Systematic Pomology’, the primary component of science of fruits, dealing with identification, nomenclature and classification of fruit species based on the descriptions of characteristics related to their morphological, genetical, physiological, biochemical, biotechnological and eco-attributes. Besides taxonomic narrative of each species under the respective orders and genera, considerable emphasis has been laid on cultivars. The treatment is based on the latest version of Nomenclature and Phylogenetic System of Classification (APG III). The book is richly illustrated with diagrams and colour plates and carries fairly exhaustive bibliography and glossary. Thus, the book is of high academic value for research workers/teachers, students and anyone interested in advanced fruit culture to provide insight in identifying and classifying fruit plants, providing standard nomenclature and terminology, in avoiding the confusion from synonymy and promoting correct labeling, to understand their genetic relations, in establishing or maintaining a garden, a germplasm block, a research orchard or even herbaria, in identification of new genotypes or cultivars for introduction and in deciding orchard management practices as well as methods of utilization, in using the correct related cultivars kept in a genetic resources repository for improvement considering the limits of hybridization, and in selecting genetic material for a breeding programme considering their taxonomic proximities and specific characters related to fruit bearing, regularity, nutritive and edible quality, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses and plant stature and form.

Book Fruit Culture

Download or read book Fruit Culture written by Kay Ryugo and published by Wiley. This book was released on 1988-06-28 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offers a clear, detailed treatment of the principles of fruit growing from the standpoint of whole-tree physiology. This unique text supports all observations with analytical data and demonstrates them through extensive illustrations and color plates. Points out variations of several commonly stated horticultural phenomena (e.g., those species which take more than 50 days to bloom, those in which flower differentiation does not take place in the summer, etc.). After an examination of the ontogeny and morphology of buds, shoots, roots, flowers, and fruits, it covers current pomology practices and describes the features and horticultural requirements of numerous species that are grown in the temperate fruit-growing areas around the world. Also includes interesting information on the origins and history of various species.
