Status of oil palm tissue culture in Malaysia: a review / Mohamad Amirul Farid Abdullah

The Malaysian national average oil yield had been stagnating at 3.5 to 3.9 t/ha/year over the past two decades. Because of the expanding worldwide requests for vegetable oils coupled with difficulties in production endeavors, there is an important need to enhance the productivity. Current oil palm (...
