| dc.description | Elaeis oleifera and Elaeis guineensis, two oil palm species capable of intercrossing to produce interspecific Elaeis oleifera × Elaeis guineensis (O×G) hybrids, exhibit genetic variability in key agronomic traits such as fruit development, oil accumulation, and bunch composition. This variability influences the productivity and oil quality of the resulting hybrids. Harvesting, a critical practice in oil palm production, significantly impacts oil yield and quality. Therefore, this study aimed to ascertain the optimum harvest point (OHP) in widely cultivated O×G hybrids and its correlation with genetic backgrounds. The O×G cultivars, Coari × La Me (C×LM), Manaos × Compacta (M×C), and Brazil × Djongo (B×DJ), were examined to identify notable changes during various phenological stages of bunch ripening using the O×G BBCH scale, a standardized system for describing plant growth stages based on phenological development. The research was conducted in the Southwest Colombian oil palm zone during dry and rainy seasons. Observations revealed distinctive fruit coloration patterns and increased bunch weights throughout the maturation process. However, final fruit coloration did not consistently align with maximum oil rates, indicating it as an unsuitable descriptor for OHP. | en-US |
| dc.description | Elaeis oleifera y Elaeis , dos especies de palma de aceite capaces de entrecruzarse para producir híbridos interespecíficos de Elaeis oleifera × Elaeis guineensis (O×G), presentan variabilidad genética en rasgos agronómicos clave, como el desarrollo del fruto, la acumulación de aceite y la composición del racimo. Esta variabilidad influye en la productividad y la calidad del aceite de los híbridos resultantes. La cosecha, una práctica critica en la producción de palma de aceite, tiene un impacto significativo en el rendimiento y la calidad del aceite; por lo tanto, este estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar el punto óptimo de cosecha (POC) en híbridos O×G ampliamente cultivados y su correlación con los antecedentes genéticos. Tres cultivares híbridos distintos de O×G (Coari × La Me (C×LM), Manaos × Compacta (M×C) y Brasil × Djongo (B×DJ)) fueron evaluados para identificar cambios notables en diferentes estadios fenológicos (EF) de maduración del racimo con ayuda de la escala O×G BBCH, un sistema estandarizado para describir las etapas de crecimiento de la planta basado en el desarrollo fenológico. La investigación se realizó en la Zona Suroccidental colombiana durante las estaciones seca y lluviosa. Las observaciones revelaron patrones distintivos de coloración del fruto y aumento en el peso del racimo a lo largo del proceso de maduración. Sin embargo, la coloración final del fruto no se alineo consistentemente con las tasas máximas de aceite, por lo cual se considera un descriptor inadecuado para el POC. | es-ES |
