Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cultivation of Neglected Tropical Fruits With Promise, Vol. 5: The Canistel and Its Relatives The family Sapotaceae has traditionally been difficult to classify. Recent publications (4, 5, 8) list a variety of botanical binomials for the same members of this family. Vernacular names have acquired considerable importance, because they are the only means by which horticulturists understand which species people are talking about. Classification of the types that bear edible fruit has been at times arbitrary and erroneous because judgments were based on poor herbarium specimens, and occasionally because good bio systematic evidence of speciation was lacking.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cultivation of Neglected Tropical Fruits With Promise, Vol. 7: The Durian Many efforts have been made to introduce the durian to the Tropics of the Western Hemisphere. Because the seeds are short lived, only potted seed lings have succeeded in shipments of plants, and predictably only in the high-rainfall areas of the Americas. The first durian to fruit outside Asia was in 1894 in Dominica (lesser Antilles) from plants sent from the Kew Botanical Gardens, England These trees were the source of plants for subse quent introductions to Trinidad, J amaica, and other Caribbean islands. Today there are many fruit bearing trees in the American Tropics, especially in dooryards of knowledgeable plantsmen and in the few botanical collections of the region, such as the Lancetilla Experimental Gardens in Honduras. There are, however, no large orchards or commer cial plantings. The reception of the durian in the American Tropics has been mixed, many people spurning it at first because of its strong smell, but an increasing number of people, particularly young people, have become fond of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pejibaye, Bactris gasipaes H.B.K. is an important fruit common in some areas of the American Tropics and unknown in others. It is a palm native to South American forests, and was introduced to Central America in pre-Columbian times, but is still seldom found in the Caribbean and other tropical areas. The palm has several spiny trunks that each bear several multifruited panicles yearly. The fruits contain a single seed. The trees are usually propagated from seeds, but better techniques are needed to preserve selected trees as clones. The trees are adapted to a wide variety of tropical soils and climates, and so far, few important diseases have been found. When mature,the fruits are harvested by a variety of techniques, none of which is very satisfactory. Harvested fruit is easily damaged and damaged fruits rot rapidly. Mature fruits are boiled, and the pulp is eaten fresh, made into a meal, or macerated to make a drink. The seed is also edible. The palm cabbage is also harvested, usually from old trunks that are being removed anyway.
