Sandalwood Biblio - Cropwatch

epresent the first TPS genes to be isolated from sandalwood and will enable further elucidation
of the oil biosynthesis genes.
This thesis `completes a three-pronged approach to understanding the underlying causes of oil
yield variance in S. album. As a species for which so little is known, the research presented here
provides a major leap forward for tree improvement, breeding and silviculture. Hence the best of
sandalwood research is presented.

Hawai’i.” Paper presented at the Symposium on Sandalwood in the Pacific, 1990. Abstract.
Adaptive radiation of Santalum in the Hawaiian archipelago has provided these remote islands
with a number of endemic species and varieties. The prehistoric Polynesian inhabitants of Hawai‘i
utilized the sandalwood trees for many of the same traditional purposes as their South Pacific
ancestors who had developed ethnobotanical relationships with Santalum. The ancient Hawaiians
probably reduced the number and geographical distribution of sandal-wood trees
significantly through their extensive cutting and burning, especially in the dry forest regions.
Nevertheless, vast numbers of the fragrant trees still existed in Hawai‘i at the time of Western
contact in 1778. Within a century after this contact, the extensive trade in sandalwood produced a
massive decline in the Hawaiian species of Santalum. Although cultivation attempts during this
cen-tury with both introduced and native sandalwood species have had limited success in
Hawai‘i, there is renewed interest in developing a sustainable forest industry based on the
production of sandalwood for export trade. Biologists in general, however, have cautioned against
