Oil Palm Breeding

Genetics and Genomics

Edición de Aik Chin Soh, Sean Mayes, Jeremy A. Roberts ...

The oil palm is a remarkable crop, producing around 40% of the world’s vegetable oil from around 6% of the land devoted to oil crops. Conventional breeding has clearly been the major focus of genetic improvement in this crop. A mix of improved agronomy and management, coupled with breeding selection have quadrupled the oil yield of the crop since breeding began in earnest in the 1920s. However, as ... Leer más
