Any good sources for information on tropical fruit tree seed storage?

[luketrollope]

I spend a lot of time checking if seed is orthodox or recalcitrant and it is frustrating how little information is available on the storage of tropical fruit tree seeds.

Does any one have any good sources for information on this topic?

Thanks!

From the CRFG website and not strictly for tropicals.

Compendium of Information on Seed Storage Behavior, 2 Volumes, by T. D. Hong, et al., published by Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, U.K.
I have an extra volume 1, if interested in buying PM me. It covers plants with genus A-H.

Hi Oscar thanks for letting me know about "Compendium of Information on Seed Storage Behavior" at 900 pages it is a bit of a tome!

I was just wondering how many species of tropical fruit are covered in the book?

I have "Seed Storage of Horticultural Crops S.d. Doijode" which covers about of the main 15 tropical fruit trees but no obscure fruits.

Thanks again

Yes it covers many of the "obscure" fruits, that's why it's so big.
