Tea Tree - The Genus Melaleuca (Electronic book text)

An up-to-date treatment of the scientific and commercial aspects of this increasingly popular medicinal plant genus, this volume covers material written by tea tree specialists dealing with significant aspects of "M. alternifolia," including botany, chemistry, cultivation, agronomy, processing, toxicology, bioactivity, uses and marketing. Cajuput ("M. cajaputi"), Niaouli ("M. quinquenervia") and potentially commercial "Melaleucas" are also reviews. The book is aimed at those concerned with the study and uses of medicinal and aromatic plants and provides a comprehensive and contemporary overview of the status of tea tree.
