Breeding of high yielding and dwarf oil palm planting materials using Deli dura × Nigerian pisifera population
In practice, progeny and individual palm selection are believed to be the most suitable breeding approach for improvement of quantitative traits in oil palm because their phenotypic expressions are strongly influenced by abiotic factors. Therefore progeny selection approach was applied in this study...
