Abstract
Studies on the yield performance and fruit analysis of green, yellow and red forms of Malayan Dwarf and of green and orange forms of Chowghat Dwarf indicate that Chowghat Dwarf is different from Malayan Dwarf. Nut and copra characters of Malayan Dwarf yellow and red forms studied and those reported from other countries show considerable variation between them. Nut and copra characters of individual palms of Malayan Dwarf yellow studied also show variation between palms. On the basis of fruit analysis the palms of Malayan Dwarf yellow have been classified into four groups. The variation between palms is likely to result in the variable performance of Dwarf x Tall hybrids produced from them.
