Achieving sustainable cultivation of temperate zone tree fruits and berries Volume 1: Physiology, genetics and cultivation (Burleigh Dodds Series in Agricultural Science Book 53)

Achieving sustainable cultivation of temperate zone tree fruits and berries Volume 1: Physiology, genetics and cultivation (Burleigh Dodds Series in Agricultural Science Book 53)

Dr Duane Greene
0/5 ( ratings)
Temperate fruits include stone/drupe fruits , pome fruits and berries . Like other crops, cultivation of these fruits faces a number of challenges. These include the need to optimize yields, sensory and nutritional quality; the dynamic threats from biotic and abiotic stresses in a changing climate; and the need for more efficient use of resources to minimise environmental impact. The two volumes of Achieving sustainable cultivation of temperate zone tree fruits and berries summarise the wealth of research addressing these challenges.

Volume 1 focusses on key advances across the value chain, from breeding improved varieties to better techniques for cultivation and crop protection. Part 1 discusses current research on physiology, genetics and breeding. Part 2 reviews advances in cultivation from orchard design to optimising water and nutrient management and harvesting operations.

With its distinguished editor and international range of expert authors, this collection will be a standard reference for horticultural scientists, government and other research centres and companies involved in cultivation of the range of temperate fruits.
