Abstract

A survey was conducted in the coconut growing areas, Sakhigopal, Brahmagiri, Konark and Kakatpur of Puri districts, Orissa. Seventeen forms of tall and dwarf varieties were identified based on size, shape and colour of nuts. Characterization of forms was made base on the vegetative, reproductive and nut characters. Local strain Bana recorded to be superior yielder. Dhanei noted for more number of female flowers and Suryabana for dwarfness and ivory skin colour.
