Abstract

The analyses of yield data collected from 986 progenies of Indonesian Tall
X Indonesian Tall showed their high production capability: 123 nuts/32.29 kg copra
per palm/yr. Six of them produced 168 nuts/58.11 kg copra per palm/yr. Two families
showed general combining ability and no inbreeding depression. They will be very
useful for breeding for high yield of copra.
