| dc.description.abstract | The epicuticular wax content (ECW) was estimated in rainfed coconut genotypes namely, West Coast Tall (WCT), WCT x Chowghat Orange Dwarf (COD) and COD x WCT between October, 1987 and August, 1988, with simultaneous measurement of weather parameters like light, temperature and relative humidity. The weather data revealed the prevalence of atmospheric and soil drought between January and May, 1988. The ECW content was higher during drought than during the non-stress periods. Thin layer chromatographic separation of the wax components indicated their qualitative differences at different seasons and among coconut genotypes. | en_US |
