Mangoes are grown throughout the tropics, subtropics and in some warm temperate regions of Europe. Production is largest in Asia followed by Africa, the Americas, Oceania and Europe. Building on the previous successful editions, The Mango: Botany, Production and Uses 3e continues the exploration of this important crop species and provides a comprehensive review of mango research and production. Contributors represent some of the largest centres of mango production such as India, China, Mexico and Brazil, as well as some smaller producers recognised for their important scientific innovation e.g. the USA, Israel, Spain and Australia. This third edition covers production and postharvest practices, cultivars, rootstocks, mineral nutrition, canopy management, pests and diseases and their underlying physiology and scientific understanding. It reviews advances in molecular genetics and applications in gene discovery, mango breeding and physiology; the understanding and challenges of floral biology and pollination; the physiological role of carbohydrates and stress; and the contribution of mango to human nutrition and health. Relevant for researchers, agronomists and mango growers, this book is essential for anyone who wants to understand the mango and its importance as an internationally traded fruit.
Richard E Litz (Edited By) Richard Litz is a professor emeritus in the Department of Horticultural Sciences of the University of Florida. From 1976 until his retirement in 2011, he was at the Tropical Research and Education Center in Homestead, where he developed and led a research programme that focused on biotechnology of tropical fruit crops, e.g., avocado, carambola, litchi, longan, mango and papaya. His laboratory hosted postgraduate students, postdoctoral fellows and visiting scientists from 16 countries in the tropics and subtropics of the Americas, Africa and Asia. He has edited seven books about biotechnology of fruit crops and also about mango and has authored more than 150 refereed publications and book chapters. In retirement, Richard lives in a village on the coast of Maine.
