Product Description
The cucurbitaceae or gourd family is of consederable economic importance as a source of vegetables, fruits, edible seeds rich in oil and proteins, edible and industrial seed oils, domestic utensils and drugs. Even so, fewer than 0.5% of the species are being used economically and the systematics of the family are relatively unknown. This volume covers a broad range of topics like taxonomy, morphology, embryology, physiology and biochemistry, and production aspects related to improvement and cultivation, plant protection and seed production of cucurbits. The contributions are from scientists and specialists and are intended for students, teachers and researchers.
