GENETIC RESOURCES OF Terminalia : THEIR MAINTENANCE, EVALUATION, UTILIZATION AND CONSERVATION

Abstract

Studies on 130 accessions of Terminalia species complexes and their hybrids exhibited continuous
variation. Maintenance of their genetic resources through ex situ conservation at various stations and
their systematic characterization and evaluation and yield and quality trials have been discussed In
detail. Strategies for effective utilization and conservation of germplasm and superior varieties of
Pentaptera have also been earmarked.
