This book on “Fruit Seed production” is the compilation of seed production technologies which includes description about the seed production technologies for 35 important fruit species. 

The major constraints in fruit cultivation is the lack of supply of good quality planting materials and lack of knowledge on the production technologies for quality planting materials by the nurserymen.

To answer these problems, this volume on “Fruit Seed Production” has been prepared at appropriate time. This book briefly discusses on seed science and technological aspects like floral biology, maturity, collection and extraction of seeds, seed dormancy, methods of breaking seed dormancy, germination improvement, seed storage, nursery techniques and production of seedlings of tropical, sub tropical and temperature fruits. Macropropagation methods like cuttings, layering, grafting and budding and micropropagation techniques were also compiled. Emphasis has also been made in this book on horticultural aspects viz, nutritive value and uses, soil and climate, varieties, planting, manures and fertilizers, irrigation, intercultural operations, training and pruning, plant protection measures, harvesting, and yield of fruits and seeds.
