Genetic Studies in Some Oil Palm Breeding Populations in Malaysia

Five oil palm breeding populations were studied for heritability, phenotypic correlations, path coefficient analysis and yield performances involving oil yield, number of bunches, single bunch weight, percentage fruit-to-bunch, percentage mesocarpto- fruit and percent age oil-to-wet me socarp.
