This monograph attempts to cover many of the tropical fruit and nut crops (belonging to Anacardiaceae, Calophyllaceae, Clusiaceae and Cactaceae, Myrtaceae, Sapotaceae, Solanaceae, Sapindaceae, Passifloraceae and Caricaceae, Arecaceae and other families) that have been infrequently covered in English. These fruits and nuts with further improvement have the potential for production and commercialization in other tropical production areas.
