Genetic diversity and selection criteria of MPOB-Senegal oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) germplasm by quantitative traits
Understanding genetic structure of different vegetative, yield and yield component traits play a major role in oil palm breeding program. Based on this background, this study was carried out to evaluate the genetic diversity and heritability among 26 families of MPOB-Senegal oil palm germplasm using...
