Santalum (sandalwood) spp. are hemi-parasitic trees, the heartwood of which produces valuable aromatic oil. There appears to be a significant commercial opportunity for establishment of a planted sandalwood resource. However, lack of basic biological knowledge is one constraint on such development. The study reported here addresses one such constraint. Controlled pollination using 13 genotypes of...
Peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) is cultivated by smallholders in Central and northern South America, principally for fruit production. In 1997, the World Agroforestry Centre (ICRAF) and Peru’s National Institute for Agricultural Research (INIA) began a participatory genetic improvement programme of the species. The programme was started by collecting open-pollinated seed from 402 selected trees...
The development of a strategy for the sustainable management and conservation of mahogany is an urgent priority. Such a strategy should be based upon clear information about the extent of genetic differentiation within and between populations, and on an understanding of the processes maintaining this variation. At present, such information is very limited for mahogany. Preliminary data are presented...
