Abstract

A critical review of the PCA’s extensive R & D findings, and field-extension experience, particularly, the Small Coconut Farms Development Project or SCFDP (1990 - 1998) was done. The analysis revealed several key points relevant to pursue a sustained coconut rehabilitation of 750,000 hectares (ha.) @ a 5-year cycle in the wet and intermediate growing zones with judicious fertilization (crop nutrition management). These major points are: (1) at least 2 million (M) ha of current stands of coconut ( more than 95 % local tall varieties) have been suffering from widespread multi-deficiency of plant nutrients such as nitrogen, chloride, sulfur, potassium, phosphorus and micronutrients like boron, zinc and copper; (2) as such, this is a major growth and yield-limiting factor that limits the average annual coconut productivity (40 nuts tree or 1 ton copra/ha); (3) the average performance (1992-95) of the SCFDP farms showed that coconut productivity increased to 91 nuts/tree (from 35 nuts) or to 3.01 tons copra/ha (from only 0.94) after at least 3 years of regular annual application of fertilizers; in 1998 ( post-rehabilitation of 3 years) yields dropped to 70 nuts/tree or 2.21 copra/ha; (4) onwards to year 2010, without management, these SCFDP farms are predicted to further drop to 25.9 nuts/tree ( 0.70 ton copra/ha/yr), based on the estimate 8-9% annual reduction rate of yield; and (5) apparently, nationwide, the SCFDP experience had shown that the soil nutrient-poor coconut farms are only capable of producing only about 1/3 of its achievable yield of 85 – 120 nuts/tree ( 2 –3 tons copra/ha), annually.

Abstract

Coconut mite, Aceria guerreronis, Keifer, which made its first appearance as pest in Mexico in 1965 as reported by Keifer, has spread far and wide. Now that 37 years have passed. Research efforts have been made on various aspects of this pest like, origin, occurrence, dispersal, symptoms, population dynamics, management practices like chemical control, bio control, cultural practices, varietal resistance/ tolerances, natural enemies, phytosanitary efforts etc. Two international seminars/ workshops have been held. Many group discussions, steering committee meetings, etc. were also held. Lots of publications have come. An earnest attempt has been made to collect the available literature on this pest which can benefit the member countries and others to know what has been done and what directions one has to move for future research and development. However, this bibliography is not the completed one. There may be many more and we will update as and when we get access to those references. We are confident that this bibliography will help to avoid duplication and take up need based research and development on Eriophyid mite.

Abstract

Root wilt disease (RWD) is a debilitating malady of coconut in India that is caused by phytoplasma. In RWD affected palms, leaf rot disease (LRD) is commonly superimposed. The LRD is due to fungi and this leaf rot phase forms an integral part of RWD complex. Control of LRD is important as it severely disfigures the palm and brings about rapid deterioration in its health and productivity. Control trial involving Phytosanitation of young leaves, pouring of broad spectrum - systemic fungicide, Contaf 5 E (Hexaconazole 5% EC) into the axil of spindle leaf besides a number of other measures was conducted to study their ameliorating effect on LRD. Prophylactic control trial, especially with the broad-spectrum fungicides was also conducted. Pouring of Contaf into the axil of spindles along with phytosanitory measures on the spindle and other young leaves significantly reduced the incidence of LRD in newly emerging spindles effecting cure. Application of the fungicide on RWD palms prior to the onset of LRD, offered prophylactic protection to emerging leaves against LRD. Relevance of practising integrated control measures, cure of LRD at an early stage itself, the need for strict adoption of crop management technology etc. for effective disease control are highlighted here.

Abstract

The experimental design and data analysis procedures followed for standardizing the CPCRI protocol of coconut zygotic embryo culture are described. The availability of human resources (for initiating the cultures as well as periodic sub-culturing), laboratory space for maintaining culture, infrastructure for preparation of adequate culture media etc, are the important factors to be considered at the planning stage. Since the response of interest per experimental unit is discrete (germinated or not), it is desired to have a “plot size” of 20. Based on the experimental errors obtained for various treatments, attempts were made to obtain the replication size for a specified value of treatment difference to be tested. In most of the experiments, per cent germination was not following the assumption of ANOVA , even after transformation. In such situation, the chi-square test was employed to study the influence of treatments on germination. The coefficient of variation in most of the experiments was below 20 %.

Abstract

Monocropping, the widely practiced traditional coconut cultivation system in Sri Lanka, utilizes bio-physical resources sub optimally, generating low returns to growers than its potential under an intensive cultivation alternative, coconut-based intercropping (CBI). Despite concerted efforts of successive governments, the adoption of CBI systems by farmers is low. This study investigates the farmers' perceptions of CBI on the premise that the understanding of farmers’ perceptions of a new technology is important to identify the causes for the low adoption of that technology. Data were gathered by a field survey of 113 and 37 intercroppers and monocroppers respectively, in three main coconut-growing districts, namely Kurunegala, Gampaha and Puttalam, using a structured questionnaire supplemented with open-ended questions, through a single visit. Percentage analysis supplemented with a simple scoring device was employed to analyze the farmer's perceptions of CBI. Intercroppers objectives of intercropping, the constraints they face in expanding intercropping, reasons for non-adoption of CBI by present monocroppers and the suggestions of present intercroppers to further expand the CBI, all in the order of importance, are presented.

Abstract

Leaf rot disease of coconut, which occurs superimposed on root (wilt) disease of coconut in about 65 % of the cases, is an important disease prevalent in Kerala State of India. Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Exserohilum rostratum are the main fungal pathogens of the disease, which disfigure the leaves and reduce yield substantially. Several biocontrol agents have been identified which reduce the disease development by these fungal pathogens. Pseudomonas spp. exhibit a host of mechanisms, which act in concert to bring about biocontrol activity. Bacillus spp. work mainly through production of antibiotics and other non-volatile metabolites. Mycoparasitism was the main contributing factor for actinomycetes group.

Abstract

Root (wilt) disease is a very serious disease of coconut in eight southern districts of Kerala, India. A comprehensive breeding programme – the only practical solution for the management of the disease – was started at Central Plantation Crops Research Institute (CPCRI), Kayangulam during 1987. Coconut seedlings, belonging to five cross combinations with WCT viz. WCT (Inter se), West Coast Tall (WCT) (Self), WCT (Mixed Pollen), Chowghat Green Dwarf (CGD) x WCT and WCT (Open Pollinated) were studied for their incidence of root (wilt) disease. All the seedlings were planted during 1992 except CGD x WCT which was planted during 1991. In the absence of a mass screening technique under artificial conditions, assessment of resistance was based on natural infection. The progenies belonging to various cross combinations of WCT x WCT showed significant variability for incidence of root (wilt) disease. Observations, recorded during September 2002, revealed that the incidence of root (wilt) varied from 53.4 to 55.2 % in WCT x WCT crosses whereas CGD x WCT had 64.5 %. Open pollinated seedlings from healthy mother palms contracted 70 % incidence of the disease. The studies showed superiority of artificially pollinated seedlings (full sibs) over the open pollinated seedlings (half sibs) with regard to their susceptibility to the disease.

Abstract

A computer simulation was performed using RiceSim computer software to explore the practicability of combining several different F2 populations together through JoinMap to mimic the real available coconut mapping populations, and found that it was very successful. JoinMap would be able to map all 16 chromosomes which covered the map length of 1540 cM except for a single marker on chromosome 8. The largest marker interval was 32 cM at the bottom of chromosome 3 and all other markers were evenly distributed along the chromosomes maintaining the space around 12-30 cM between them.
