Indian cherry (Cordia myxa L.), locally called lasora or gonda, is an important multipurpose fruit tree species
distributed in arid and semi-arid regions of India. Its versatile adaptability to poor soils, wastelands and tolerance capacity to water stress makes it suitable plant for arid ecosystem. The species is known for its nutritious fruits and diverse uses of other plant parts. It is generally planted as shelter belt on farm boundaries, but now a days, it is grown as planned orchard to fetch premium prices from its fruits in summer season (March-April). In view of its benefits both in tangible and non-tangible terms, the research work on its genetic improvement and production technologies has been attempted at various ICAR institutes and Agricultural Universities. High yielding varieties like Maru Samridhi, Karan Lasora and Thar Bold have been developed by selection from seedling population. The vegetative propagation technique, rootstocks, canopy management and crop regulation by defoliation and irrigation scheduling have been standardized. To review the available information on its germplasm collection, evaluation and improvement as well as production, and post harvest management under-utilized may serve the purpose for benefits of growers, researchers, and policy makers.
