Strategy for the Genetic Improvement of Bamboo

Bamboo is one of the very important non wood forest produce. It is being used for varied purposes but their usage in pulp and paper industry is immeasurable. The demand for bamboo is fast increasing. Tree improvement technique can be used to bridge this gap. Candidate plus clump selection will help to increase bamboo production to meet the immediate superior planting stock,selected clumps can be multiplied by vegetative propagation either in macro or micro level. Conventional and somatic hybridization can also be initiated to induce desirable genes in the progenies. In-situ or ex-situ conservation have to be taken up to preserve biodiversity of the bamboo family.
