A hybrid evaluation trial with four inter varietal hybrids involving West Coast Tall and Chowghat Orange Dwarf parents had been laid out in 1972 at CPCRI. Kasaragod. The performance of these hybrids were evaluated under rainfed condition. Morphological characters related to leaf, inflorescence, fruit and fruit components were recorded in the adult palms. Apart from these, number of bunches, number of female flowers and number of nuts produced in two yielding phases(12-15 years and 16-19 years of age), cumulative and average yield on a 20-year span was also analyzed. Out of 47 characters studied, 17 were statistically significant among the hybrids. Average nut yield/palm/year of Tx D (Kerasankara) hybrid was significantly higher than the other three with 64.3 nuts during initial bearing stage (12-16 years) and with 106 nuts during the prime bearing age (16-19 years of age). Dwarf x Dwarf recorded significantly higher leaf scar number per meter (47.33) whereas Tall x Tall hybrids were taller (760.79 em) than others Not Available |
