Abstract

For many island nations of the South Pacific the coconut palm is the most important smallholder tree crop. Most attempts to introduce processing; beyond the copra stage have failed. At the same time there is a declining trend in copra prices. Unlike most other major coconut producing countries (Philippines, India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Thailand), the South Pacific nations do not have significant expanding domestic urban markets. As a result they must look to alternative export markets and direct output to higher income, non‑traditional market niches. This paper, part of an on‑going research project, presents arguments in favour of an export ‘demand‑pull’ strategy for the coconut industry based on a re‑examination of the coconut as a total resource rather than only as a source of a raw vegetable oil. The effective use of this resource requires that the fruit be proces­sed as a mature fresh nut and that all parts of the nut are used. The strategy implies a switch in research priorities, away from plant breeding and disease control towards processing, domestic and in­ternational shipping, energy policies and market development. Im­proved markets would in turn give renewed impetus to the conti­nuation of the excellent plant breeding work that has already been done.

Abstract

Three‑year observations made upto 1987 on coconut hybrid PB121 (Malayan Yellow Dwarf x West Affican Tall) planted at the Bangun Purba PTP VI Estate, North Sumatra in 1977 revealed a 9.5 percent infestation by bud‑rot disease. Bud‑rot is disastrous since it kills the only growing point of the plant, and until today no remedy has been found out other than uprooting and destroying the diseased palms. Exast cause of but‑rot is not known, even­though the fungus Phytophthora palmivora is associated with the affected palms. This disease is noticed exclusively on mature palms, older than four years, and is found to spread blockwise.

Abstract

Today India stands at the third position as far as the world situation of coconut production is concerned. Coconut occupies 1.1. million hectares of land producing 6,887 million nuts in this country. In the southern part of the country viz. Kerala, Kamata­ka, Tamilnadu and Andhra Pradesh, coconut is a very good source of income and these states account for most of the production of coconut. In spite of the importance it has in India's economy, the productivity of the crop is low. Although many factors are res­ponsible for the poor yields, the most important of these are the diseases that attack these palms and affect their productivity. Among these diseases, a few are killers while others are slow and debilitating in nature. For some of them the cause is known while the aetiology of some others is still elusive. This review envisages in discussing some of the recent research trends in the major diseases of coconut in India.
SHORT TERM in vitro PRESERVATION OF COCONUT SEED MATERIAL: A METHOD TO FACILITATE FIELD COLLECTION AND TRANSPORT OF COCONUT GERMPLASM S.M. Karunaratne

Abstract

High cost of transport and the short storage fife of recalcitrant seednuts are two major obstacles to the effective field collection and exchange of coconut germplasm. An in vitro method invol­ving the culture of zygotic embryos of coconut was developed to overcome these problems. The excised embryos were initially subjected to a slow growth phase by culturing in an agar based medium containing nutrients barely sufficient for their survival. After 2, 3 and 5 months in this medium, the embryos were trans­ferred to the gerinination or the development medium for resumption of growth and plant development. 53% of the zygotic embryos preserved in this manner for a period of 2 months produced nor­mal plants when transferred to the gennination medium. The percentage germination dropped to 32 after 5 months storage in the survival medium. The prolonged low temperature storage of cultures (100 and 40C for three months), caused irreversible damage to the coconut embryos and no plants were formed when transferred to the germination medium. The advantages of the technique are that a large number of 'seednuts' can be transported free of pests in a small container and requires no change in the culture medium during the preser­vation period. Unlike the germination medium, the survival me­dium is agar based and hence the risk of containination is low. The non gerridnators can be identified and rejected prior to the germination phase.

Abstract

Study of the variations in the yield of coconuts in the West Coast of India, in relation to the pattern of rainfall and duration of dryspell revealed that the yield obtained in any year is not directly related with the total rainfall received in the same year or in the preceeding years. Summer rains were having positive correlation with the yield in the succeeding year. About 60% of the variations in the annual yield were due to the changes in the duration of dryspell in the preceeding two years.
