Item Coconut nursery studies. III- Vigour of seedlings in relation to the floating position of seednuts in water(2007) Krishna Marar, M.M.; Shambhu, K.A study of the vigour of seedlings in relation to the floating position of seednuts in water has shown that seedlings from vertically floating nuts are decidedly more vigorous than obliquely or horizontally floating"nuts'. Horizontally floating nuts give rise to seedlings with least vigour. Where one has to deal with large number of mother palms it may be possible by using this simple method to spot out and discard mother palms that are likely to give rise to poor progenies in the nursery without actually undertaking detailed nursery studies.
