Abstract

This study analyses the domestic demand for coconuts in Sri Lanka using a single equation econometric model. The domestic coconut consumption accounts 70 percent of the total annual nut production in Sri Lanka. Being an essential commodity for household use, the coconuts form a stable domestic market out-let for producers as well. The results of the study reveals that the retail price of coconuts and per capita consumer income are significant variables that determine the quantity of coconut demand in Sri Lanka. There is a significant negative trend in per capita consumption of coconuts over time, indicating a declining tastes and preferences by the consumer. However, the changes in consumer demand for coconuts to the changes in retail prices are less responsive as indicated by the lower own price elasticity value of –0.11. The income elasticity of coconut demand is 0.38 and it is inelastic too.

Abstract

Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) is an important perennial multi-purpose palm commonly grown in humid tropics. The crop belongs to the monotypic genus Cocos having 2n=2x=32 chromosomes. The crop supports millions of resource poor farm families in islands and coastal ecosystems. Genetic improvement of coconut palm is in progress in many research stations for improving yield and tolerance to biotic and abiotic stress. Knowledge of genetic divergence of the crop is helpful in improvement of the crop. Pacific islands are supposed to contain wild forms and rich diversity of coconut. Genetic divergence studies were carried out using morphological, fruit component characters by many workers. Sugimura et al., (1997) analysed the diversity of 39 accessions of coconut as three major groups typica, nana and javanica using agronomic and botanical traits. Nana was found to be an aggregate group, which was far distant from typica. But, javanica was found to be an intermediate type.

Abstract

The pattern of world distribution of two major fruit morphotypes of coconuts has led to development of theories on origin, domestication and dissemination of coconut. Results of recent nuclear DNA analyses are in agreement with these theories with several other new insights. Compared to the plant nuclear genome however, the plant organelle genomes, the chloroplast genome and the mitochondrial genome are highly conserved and are maternally inherited in most angiosperms. Therefore, most useful information have come from regions of DNA located in organelle genome for studying phylogeny in angiosperms and for deducing historical information and evolutionary history of populations such as past migration routes and colonization dynamics. This study was aimed to determine the feasibility of developing polymorphic cytoplasmic markers, particularly the chloroplast markers. Chloroplast DNA variation of coconut from all coconut growing regions in the world assessed by both restriction digestions and physical separation of PCR products obtained with universal primers, by chloroplast microsatellites and by sequencing showed no variation. This tends to suggest that coconut may have gone through a severe cytoplasmic bottleneck and only one chloroplast type may have participated in the colonization process.

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Central Plantation Crops Research Institute, Kasaragod, India for six years (1993-1999) to study the impact of drip irrigation levels and mulching on coconut in littoral sandy soil. The treatments consisted of three levels of drip irrigation (66, 100, and 133 % of open pan evaporation (E0)) along with basin irrigation (100 % of E0) and rainfed control as main plot treatments and mulching with coconut leaves and no mulching as sub plot treatments. The experimental results revealed that annual leaf production and leaf nutrient status of coconut was better in the irrigated treatments compared to the rainfed control. The drip irrigation at 66 per cent of E0 (27 litres of water per palm per day during December-January months and 32 litres of water per palm per day during February-May months) resulted in water saving and the nut yield was on par with 100 per cent and 133 per cent of E0 through drip and 100 per cent of E0 through basin irrigation and differed significantly compared to rainfed control. The nut characters like nut weight, husk weight, copra thickness, copra content and copra yield was superior under irrigated treatments compared to rainfed control. The copra yield was 499 kg per ha under rainfed condition, where as it was 2087 to 2202 kg per ha under irrigated treatments. Irrigation along with mulching with coconut leaves resulted in significantly higher nut yields.

Abstract

Net photosynthetic (A) and leaf transpiration (E) rates and stomatal conductance to water vapour (gs) of Malayan Yellow Dwarf (MYD) and Brazilian Green Dwarf (BGD) coconut accessions (Cocos nucifera var. ‘nana’ L.) were studied and discussed in terms of the technical aspects related to light-response curves in field conditions. Measurements of gas exchange were performed during four days, in April and may 2000, at the Cocoa Research Center Experimental Station (Una - BA, Brazil). The A, gs and E parameters were significantly (P < 0.05) different between the two genotypes. The mean maximum values of A, gs and E were 10.4 and 12.0 µmol CO2 m-2 s-1, 0.21 and 0.35 mol H2O m-2 s-1 and 3.07 and 3.69 mmol m-2 s-1 for MYD and BGD, respectively. For both genotypes a good fitting of the light-response curve models were obtained, indicating that A and gs were dependent of the photosynthetically active radiation incident on leaf surface (Qi), in spite of high genotipic variation. Interesting results were achieved when an empirical multiplicative model was used. The model relating A or gs with Qi and with leaf-to-air water vapour pressure deficit inside the chamber (VPDL) was tested for both genotypes and showed a negative influence of the latter on the stomatal behavior and consequently on A. Such effect was more pronounced in BGD than in MYD. These and others relationships involving leaf gas exchange and microclimatic variables in coconut palm trees are discussed
