Effect Of Different Moisture And Shade Regimes On Seedling Growth Of Three Oil Palm (Elaeis Guineensis) Progenies

Abstract

The effect of three different moisture and shade regimes on the seedling growth of three Dura x Pisifera oil palm progenies was investigated at the Oil Palm Research Institute, Kusi between July 1998 and February 2000. A split plot design with four replications was used. Data were collected on leaf number per plant, plant height, butt circumference and leaf area as well as dry weight of plant parts and total plant dry weight. Growth analysis was performed and correlation among traits calculated. Phenotypic and genotypic variances as well as heritability estimates were also determined. Significant effects on seedling growth due to shade, moisture supply and progeny as well as their interactions were observed. All the characters studied were significantly and positively (P
