Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) is a tropical crop currently gaining immense popularity as
a'health food'. A long-duration crop, coconut cultivation across the globe is threatened by …

Considerable progress has been made in evolving high-yielding coconut cultivars and
hybrids with desirable traits, despite critical constraints in breeding due to heterozygous …

R genes with colossal contributions to disease resistance possess conserved domains with
confounded roles. Based on the conserved domains, R genes encoded proteins are …

Genetic diversity is an important determinant of future yield security and hence is a
significant factor for crop varietal improvement. Genetic diversity in coconuts is evidenced by …
