Abstract
The studies were conducted during the two successive seasons of 2001 and 2002. The studies aimed to focus on A senegalensis as multiuses fruit tree which was not established enough in Egypt. Some of the uses are investigated in the present study (1) The use as pollinator, (2): The availability of non edible fruits to be used in food processing and trial to solve processing problems using cross hand pollination of Annona atemoya, Asquamosa and selected Squamosa male parents. Pollination is also used for improving fruit qualities to meet the future needs of processing. (3): The use as rootstock for different cherimoya (Annona) species, (4): The availability of seeds to produce sufficient rootstocks and some and the best container, (5): fresh consumption. The data indicated the effeciency of using A senegalensis as pollinator for other annona in controlled pollination increasing fruit weight, pulp and TSS percentage while decreasing seed number and could be used also as complementary pollinator during lack of pollen. The primery studies encourage the processing to of fruits and trial to improve qualities for processing by pollination of other annonas increased pulp weight. The tree had superior survivability under different environments and is excellent rootstock to known and selected annonas, the growing in black bags is better than plates and pots to raise suitable rootstocks. The annona senega/inses is a fighter tree under different conditions and multiuses easy propagated tolerant tropical fruit tree recommended to be more established. The disadvantage is the high seed number could be overcome buy pollinating with good variety or use the seeds for medical or natural pesticide uses
