Product Detail - DxP Oil Palm |

The Principle of Breeding
Oil palm, the species Elaeis guineensis exist in 3 fruit forms namely Dura(D). Tenera(T) and Pisifera(P). The Dura fruit has a thick shell (20 - 50%) and hence giving lower oil extraction. The Pisifera fruit though is shell-less is generally female sterile (bunches are abortive). The combination of Dura and Pisifera (DxP) results in Tenera(T) fruits which have thin shell and higher oil extraction. Furthermore, yield is enhanced as illustrated by the below example.
Dura Palm Pisifera Palm 6 bunches 14 bunches x x 25kg 9kg
(6+14) / 2 = 10 bunches x (25+9) / 2 = 17kg
170kg
By theory alone, yield is already increased in addition to higher oil extraction. Nevertheless, the selection of superior or elite Dura (mother palm) and Pisifera (pollen source) is what makes the difference between the handful of reputable DxP oil palm seed producers. Generations of stringent selection of SEU’s planting material has resulted in highly uniform planting material. Moreover, SEU has also set higher standards for the selection of mother palms. A comparison between SIRIM and SEU’s qualifying requirement with regards to the mother palm and progeny (offspring) performance is given below:
