Abstract: The genus Garcinia belongs to the family Clusiaceae (Guttiferae). It consists of about 180 species, of which ~ 30 species are found in India. The genus is also found in Africa. The well-known and widespread species in Asia are G. mangostana, G. cambogia, G. dulcis and G. tinctoria. About 40 species of Garcinia produce edible fruits (Yapwattanaphum et al., 2002). G. dulcis has a wider potential as a home garden fruit in the tropics, along with G. mangostana, but other species are not suitable (Martin et al., 1987).
