dc.description.abstractThe differences during the early stages of germination in the water absorption by the seednuts among three cultivars and one hybrid of coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) namely, WCT (Tall), MYD and COD (dwarfs) and WCTx COD is highlighted. The amount of water absorbed is higher in WC tall and the hybrid as compared to dwarfs. Growth parameters like the length of root and shoot as well as the volume of the haustorium are analysed. In addition, the partitioning of dry matter into husk, shell, kernel, haustorium, root and shoot were also determined. The essential role o/haustorium during the developmental changes as envisaged by the greater partitioning of dry matter is brought out.en_US
