  • Genetics of Makapuno: a Genetic Tumor of the Coconut Endosperm
    GENETICS OF MAKAPUNO: A GENETIC TUMOR OF THE COCONUT ENDOSPERM Dolores A. Ramirez Institute of Piant Breeding College ofAgriculture University of the Philippines IAJs Banos College, Laguna, Phflipplnes ABSTRACT The genetic misregulation resulting in the continued cell proliferation and uncontrolled growth of the mutant coconut endosperm (makapuno) was studied. Biochemical, cytological and histological data indicate that the makapuno con­ dition resulted from the altered transcription of the genes for the enzymes involved in hormone metabolism. The altered hormone metabolism caused the misregulation of galactomannan metabolism which in turn effected the abnormal cell behavior and properties of the makapuno endospenn. Introduction The mutant coconut endosperm, locally known as makapuno, results from continued cell proliferation and uncontrolled growth, characteristic of neo­ plastic tissues or tumor. Early studies of Torres (1937) and Zw1iga (1953) indicate that the makapuno condition is gene-controUed, specifically one major gene effect. However, considering the several types of makapuno one can observe (Adriano and Manahan, 1931) and the series of biochemical processes the cells would have to undergo before continuous cell proliferation happens, it is quite clear that a major gene effect might be an oversimplification. Genetic tumor is known to be inducible in plants. For example, certain inter­ specific hybrids in Nicotiana (N glauca x N. langsdorffii) result in the formation of tumorous tissues quite identical to that of makapuno (Chuja, I 965; 1968). The same genetic tumors were induced by interspecific hybridization in Datura and by inbreeding in sweet clover (Braun, 1981). This malignant process is due to a single type of heritable cellular change that involves the regulatory mechanisms, Except for makapuno, there are no known naturally occurring genetic tumors in plants.

  • Physico-Chemical Properties and Processing Possibilities of Macapuno Cultivars Developed at Leyte State University
    Philippine Journal of Crop Science (PJCS) August 2005, 30(2): 55-60 Copyright 2005, Crop Science Society of the Philippines Released 19 June 2005 PHYSICO-CHEMICAL PROPERTIES AND PROCESSING POSSIBILITIES OF MACAPUNO CULTIVARS DEVELOPED AT LEYTE STATE UNIVERSITY ROBERTA D LAUZON Leyte State University, ViSCA, Baybay 6521-A, Leyte, Philippines Physico-chemical analysis of the different macapuno cultivars developed at the National Coconut Research Center (NCRC), Leyte State University (LSU), Visca, Baybay, Leyte was undertaken. Physical, functional, proximate and sensory attributes of the endosperm were determined. Processing potentials of the cultivars were assessed and sensory qualities of the developed products were evaluated. It was noted that variety affects the physical and functional properties of macapuno. VMAC-4 exhibited the largest physical measure but relatively low percent meat yield, and VMAC-1 the smallest. Proximate composition of endosperm was found significantly different in all cultivars evaluated. Macapuno endosperm exhibited a high fat component of 30.81-44.97%, protein of about 9.31-10.85%, and very low fiber content of 0.17-0.31%. It is seen that different fresh macapuno endosperms do not significantly differ from each other in sensory attributes except for juiciness and texture. Regardless of cultivar, macapuno has acceptable sensory qualities. The bland taste and absence of strong odor makes the macapuno endosperm a high-potential material for food product development. It is important to exploit the morphological diversity of the LSU-developed macapuno cultivars, which are an important scientific breakthrough. coconut, functional properties, Leyte, macapuno endosperm, morphological diversity, physical properties, physico-chemical analysis, processing possibilities, proximate composition, scientific breakthrough, sensory attributes, technology development INTRODUCTION converted into quick energy and not stored in the body as fat (Loha-Unchit 2005).

  • Cocos Nucifera
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by OpenSIUC Cocos nucifera By Karen Smith Cocos nucifera is the scientific name of the common coconut. This very tall palm tree is always an inviting symbol of the tropics. The plant is one of the most valuable plants to man. It is a primary source of food, drink, and shelter. In Sanskrit the coconut palm is called "kalpa vriksha", which is defined as "the tree which provides all the necessities of life." Man can use every part of the coconut. The white nut-meat can be eaten raw or shredded and dried and used in most cooking recipes. A single coconut has as much protein as a quarter pound of beefsteak. Copra, the dried meat of the kernels, when crushed is the source of coconut oil. The husks, known as coir, is a short, coarse, elastic fibers used to make an excellent thatch roofing material for houses. This very diverse plant is also an excellent charcoal, which is produced from the shells, not only does it work as a cooking fuel, but also in the production of gas masks and air filters. The outer part of the trunk of the coconut palm furnishes, a construction lumber, known as porcupine wood for houses and furniture. The swollen base of the trunk, when hollowed, can be turned into a hula drum that the Hawaiians use for entertainment. These are just a few examples of how extraordinary the coconut palm can be utilized. The coconut was first mentioned in 545 AD by an Egyptian Monk named Cosmos Indicopleustes.

  • Varieties and Forms of the Coconut Palm Grown in Ceylon
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Coconut Research Institute Repository VARIETIES AND FORMS OF THE COCONUT PALM GROWN IN CEYLON By DR. D.V. LIYANAGE Botanist, Coconut Research Institute of Ceylon The varieties and forms of the cosmopolitan coconut palm (Cocos nucifera L.) have been described by different workers from time to time. Recently, Narayana and John (1949), Gangolly, et al (1957), Menon and Pandalai (1958) have given a comprehensive list of coconut varieties. Although, a number of forms have been described by the use of local names, it is very unlikely that the total number would be so large, if a critical analysis of world varieties and forms is undertaken and the terminology is standardised. Hunger (1920) has described seven varieties of coconut palms based on size of palm, charac­ teristics of the nut, mainly colour and size, as follows: (1) viridis Hassk.—nuts green, (2) rubescens Hassk.—nuts grey brown, (3) macrocarpa Hassk.—nuts very large, (4) rulila Miq.—husk very thick, of little value for copra, (5) eburnea Hassk.—an albino variety of no commercial value, but useful as an ornamental palm, (6) pumilla Hassk.—early maturing dwarf type bearing green nuts and (7) regia Miq.—early maturing dwarf bearing golden-yellow or orange-yellow nuts. Perhaps types (i)to (5) may be more appropriately described as forms of a single variety and (6) and (7) forms of another variety. Narayana and John (1949) have divided the species into five varieties, viz. (1) spicata Jacob —a purely female coconut palm, (2) androgena Nar.—a male coconut palm, (3) javanica Nar.—a mutant true breeding type from Java, (4) typica Nar.—the ordinary tall type found in all the coconut growing areas of the world and (5) nana (Griff.) Nar.—the common dwarf variety.
