In any hybridization program, recognition of the best combination of two (or more) parental
genotypes to maximize variance within related breeding populations, and as a result the …

Oil palm, a cross-pollinated crop with long generation time, poses a lot of challenges in
achieving sustainable oil palm with high yield and quality. The African oil palm (Elaeis …

Abstract Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is a perennial vegetable and a high oil-yielding
crop (4–6 t/ha). There is a large scope for increasing the oil yield by selecting elite planting …

Understanding genetic structure of different vegetative, yield and yield component traits play
a major role in oil palm breeding program. Based on this background, this study was carried …

More efficient methods are required to breed oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) for yield
maximization in order to meet the increased demand for palm oil while limiting …

A long term evaluation of a planting density trial on selected 15 dura× pisifera oil palm
hybrids from six Malaysian seed producers was laid out in equilateral triangle in four …

This study was carried out to evaluate the performance of pisifera (male parent) palms, their
general combining ability, and to identify suitable pisifera palms for large scale production of …

Twelve introgressed oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) progenies of Nigerian dura x Deli dura
were evaluated for bunch yield, yield attributes, bunch quality components and vegetative …

The genome-wide association study used 115 oil palm genotypes and assessed seven oil
properties using fifty-four SSR markers. The diversity analysis study classified these …

High-throughput and high-density (HD) genetic marker genotyping systems are critical to
optimize the efficiency of oil palm breeding and improvement programmes. This study …
