Abstract
Litchi (Litchi chinensisSonn.) is one of the precious and economically important fruit crops of the world. The species belongs to the family Sapindaceae, which comprises about species of tropical and subtropical trees, shrubs, and vines that have been classified into genera (Chapman, ). Litchi has been shown to possess variable diploid chromosome numbers where 2n = 28, 30, The variation in chromosome number is thought to be because the modem species had more than one wild progenitor. Litchi fruit contain high levels of ascorbic acid ranging from 40 to 80 mg/IOO g of flesh, making it an excellent source of vitamin C (Cavaletto, ). The edible portion of fruit is a thick juicy aril having high moisture content (77 to 83 %), low fat (less than 1 %) and high sugar (14 to 23° Brix) and phosphorus contents. The fruit is an excellent thirst quencher and serves as a tonic for brain, heart and liver. In addition to medicinal uses, litchi fruit and their starchy seeds are used in brewing sweets and fragrant wine.
