Abstract

Tropical crops : Monocotyledons presents the basic information on the botany and agronomy of tropical monocotyledonous crops, which are either used locally or are partly or wholly exported. The space given to each crop is dependent upon its importance and the amount of work which has been devoted to it. There is coverage even of those crops grown on a small scale and some which occur wild. The arrangement of the book is by plant families, which with their genera and species are given in alphabetical order. The information on each crop is given under the headings : common names, chromosome numbers, uses, systematics, origin and distribution, cultivars, ecology, structure, pollination, germination, chemical composition, propagation, husbandry, major diseases and pests, improvement and breeding, and production and trade. A twenty-page general glossary of botanical terms is included. This soft-cover edition is an unabridged combination, with corrections, of the two volumes of Tropical crops : Monocotyledons which were first published in 1972 and which have received wide critical acclaim.
