Seashore mangosteen (Garcinia hombroniana Pierre), an important component of Garcinia gene pool, is useful as a rootstock and also in the genetic improvement of mangosteen. A brief description along with short notes on distribution and uses is given. Naturally occurring in Nicobar Islands and under cultivation in Tamil Nadu and Kerala, its germplasm needs to be collected and conserved for its potential horticultural value. The authors are grateful to Mr. Rassalam, a nursery owner at Parassala, Kerala for sharing information on the use of G. hombroniana as a rootstock for mangosteen. They are also grateful to the Director, NBPGR for encouragement and facilities provided. These two collections were made under the NATP-PB and the financial assistance received under it for Zone-II activities is acknowledged. |
