Gmelina arborea Roxb., a member of family Lamiaceae, is a multipurpose tree species with numerous uses world over. Despite colossal scope in timber and pharmaceutical industry, species has not been utilized sustainably, and quality-planting material is still too far a cry. Though species holds enormous potential under agro-forestry, needs research and scientific experimental trials for systematic evaluation of genetic materials to Present review purports towards status of tree improvement, breeding and biotechnological advances realized in G. arborea. It reveals that along with classical methods, there are certain contemporary tools which need to be used appropriately for achieving desired results. Nonetheless, focus has been directed on various tools of tree improvement of the species including conventional and non-conventional. Improvement of G. arborea through modern day tools is lagging, and application of DNA based markers. It is however proposed to apply different tools and techniques for a comprehensive and systematic genetic improvement of the species.References
