Although large number of varieties of guava has been selected, only few selections viz., Allahabad Safeda, Sardar, Pant Prabhat and Lalit are being exploited commercially. A medium tall less seeded, colored variety with good keeping quality and resistance to guava wilt disease is need of the day. Guava is being propagated through budding, stooling and grafting. Wilt infected mother plants of guava are playing major role in spreading the disease beyond leap and bounds. There is an urgent need to produce disease free planting material in guava. Biotechnology can help in solving some of the long-standing problems of guava cultivation. Research on guava biotechnology is still in its infancy. This paper describes current status and future need of biotechnological research for improvement of guava. Not Available |
