Book Description
Excerpt from Systematic Pomology Twenty-five years ago I published a small book under the title, A Laboratory Manual in Systematic Pomology. The book was primitive in treatment and incomplete in material. It could hardly have been otherwise, for at that time there was no ac cumulated experience in teaching systematic pomology, and few fruits had been fully described either in species or varieties. Through this attempt I came to realize the need of a text for pomological students which would classify, arrange, and fully describe American pomological material, and I conceived the plan of writing such a book. As the years have passed, this plan has been kept in mind; meanwhile Opportunity has come to study hardy fruits in many parts of the United States and Canada, and to describe, as they grow on the grounds of the New York Agricultural Experiment Station, nearly every hardy fruit to be found in North America. Now, from this fuller knowledge I Offer my second book on systematic pomology. The present book, it will be found, is based on the several books published by the State Of New York on apples, pears, peaches, plums, cherries, grapes, and one in preparation on small-fruits, all Of which, with the exception of the work on apples, have been written under my supervision. Much Of the material comes even more directly from my Cyclopedia of Hardy Fruits, published by The Macmillan Company. All of these books, except the Cyclopedia, are difficult to Obtain, and all are too bulky in size and character to be used for school and college text-books for which the work in hand is chiefly intended. There is, however, much that is new in this text, and the mate rial taken from the larger books has been put in simpler and briefer form and has been more suitably arranged for classroom work.

Book Description
Systematic pomology, or the branch of pomology dealing with our knowledge of the fruits themselves, is explored in Frank Waugh's 1903 book, as well as the trees, bushes, or vines on which they grow. He treats three distinct subjects: description, nomenclature, and classification.
Systematic Pomology (Vol. 1-2) (Set)
Author: O.P. PareekPublisher: Scientific Publishers
ISBN: 9387741036
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 953
Book Description
The book is aimed to be a treatise on the ‘Systematic Pomology’, the primary component of science of fruits, dealing with identification, nomenclature and classification of fruit species based on the descriptions of characteristics related to their morphological, genetical, physiological, biochemical, biotechnological and eco-attributes. Besides taxonomic narrative of each species under the respective orders and genera, considerable emphasis has been laid on cultivars. The treatment is based on the latest version of Nomenclature and Phylogenetic System of Classification (APG III). The book is richly illustrated with diagrams and colour plates and carries fairly exhaustive bibliography and glossary. Thus, the book is of high academic value for research workers/teachers, students and anyone interested in advanced fruit culture to provide insight in identifying and classifying fruit plants, providing standard nomenclature and terminology, in avoiding the confusion from synonymy and promoting correct labeling, to understand their genetic relations, in establishing or maintaining a garden, a germplasm block, a research orchard or even herbaria, in identification of new genotypes or cultivars for introduction and in deciding orchard management practices as well as methods of utilization, in using the correct related cultivars kept in a genetic resources repository for improvement considering the limits of hybridization, and in selecting genetic material for a breeding programme considering their taxonomic proximities and specific characters related to fruit bearing, regularity, nutritive and edible quality, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses and plant stature and form.
