A total of 90 coconut farmers participated in the adoption of ICAR-CPCRI technology to produce West Coast Tall (WCT) coconut seedlings that are resistant/tolerant to the root (wilt) disease at the community level. Partners included extension agents, coconut producers' societies (CPS) and clusters, women self-help groups (WSHGs), and agricultural labor organizations. The characteristics of technologies that are suggested for adoption in root (wilt) disease-affected tracts, such as the scientific management of young coconut trees and the production of high-quality seedlings through community nurseries, challenge the idea of adoption. There are a lot of variances in the homestead gardens' marginal holdings, including expertise, the use of technology, and access to advisory services. Government agencies provided the majority of the seedlings and extension advisory services, emphasizing the necessity for FPO-based or private extension in the coconut growing industry. The coconut farmers' understanding has significantly improved as a result of the participatory interventions for managing seedlings. The participatory demonstration and community farm school (CFS) strategy is discussed in the paper as a way for homesteads to manage juvenile coconuts while integrating new ideas and fostering cross and reciprocal learning. Refining the current extension approach requires integrating new knowledge about the characteristics of seedling growth, future economic performance, and social evaluation of choices of technological, individual, and skill-oriented interventions in risk-prone areas with debilitating root (wilt) disease.Item Convergence Model for Establishing Decentralized Coconut Nursery : The Kallara Experience(2020-11) Bharath Mohan; Joseph Refin Jefri; Shareefa, M.; Regi Jacob ThomasItem CPCRI Regional Station, Kayamkulam at a glance(2013-09) Chandrika Mohan; Anitha Kumari, P.; Shareefa, M.; Jeena Mathew; Nihad, K.; Chaturvedi, V.K.Item Diversity in Coconut(2017-10) Regi Jacob Thomas; Shareefa, M.Item Domestic quarantine umbrella to prevent spread of root (wilt) disease to be strengthened(2015-08) Regi J.

A set of 50 hyperpolymorphic coconut SSR markers were utilized to characterize parental lines Chowghat Green Dwarf (CGD) and West Coast Tall (WCT) used for hybrid coconut production. A panel of 17 informative SSR markers capable of distinguishing these parental lines was identified and these markers were utilized in DxT hybrid seedling purity assessments in coconut nurseries.Item Hybrids and Hybridization techniques in coconut(2011-09) Regi J.

Thomas; Shareefa, M.; Merin Babu; Anitha KarunCoconut, an important crop of the tropics and subtropics, is susceptible to a variety of diseases and enhancing disease resistance has been the major goal of coconut breeding programs all over the world. Information on the presence and distribution of disease resistance (R) genes, which play a primary role in the detection of pathogens and the initiation of specific plant defenses, is scarce in coconut. In this study, RNA-Seq was used to generate the transcriptome of leaf samples of coconut root (wilt) disease-resistant cultivar Chowghat Green Dwarf. Comprehensive bioinformatics analysis identified 243 resistance gene analog (RGA) sequences, comprising 6 classes of RGAs. Domain and conserved motif predictions of clusters were performed to analyze the architectural diversity. Phylogenetic analysis of deduced amino acid sequences revealed that coconut NBS-LRR type RGAs were classified into distinct groups based on the presence of TIR or CC motifs in the N-terminal regions. Furthermore, qRT-PCR analysis validated the expression of randomly selected NBS-LRR type RGAs. The results of this study provide a sequence resource for development of RGA-tagged markers in coconut, which would aid mapping of disease-resistant candidate genes. In addition, we hope that this study will provide a genomic framework for isolation of additional RGAs in coconut via comparative genomics and also contribute to the deciphering of mode of evolution of RGAs in Arecaceae.Item In vitro regeneration of coconut plantlets from immature inflorescence(2019) Shareefa, M.; Regi Jacob Thomas; Sreelekshmi, J.S; Rajesh, M.K; Anitha KarunItem Integrated farming system approach through coconut: A success story from Attappady Hills(2021-03) Regi Jacob Thomas; Shareefa, M.; Ashokan, E.RItem Laying out of Demonstration Plots for integrated management of coconut root (wilt) disease in Tenkasi district(2024-12-01) Josephrajkumar, A.; Regi J.
