Synopsis "Durian: King of Tropical Fruit"

Durian is extensively grown in tropical regions, the major producers being Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and the Philippines. The tree is also grown in northern Australia, some South American countries and in Africa. Although to many novices its smell is notoriously offensive, its taste canbecome a passion and it is one of the most popular fruits in South-East Asia. To quote the great 19th century naturalist, A.R. Wallace: "To eat durian is a new sensation worth a voyage to the East to experience". This book is the first comprehensive, scientific volume to be published in English on this "king of tropical fruit". It provides information on the biology, propagation and use of the fruit, and descriptions of the scientififc basis of production practices and orchard management, as well aspost-harvest processing. It will be a unique resource for horticulture libraries worldwide and for students of tropical horticulture.
