GENETIC DIVERSITY OF OIL PALM: A SOURCE FOR ECOLOGICAL INTENSIFICATION OF OIL PALM IN AREAS AFFECTED BY BUT ROT DISEASE Barba J., Baquero Y. Mendoza L.* Palmar del Ro Ecuador Research and Development Unit Introduction For three decades
Barba J., Baquero Y. Mendoza L.* Palmar del Río –Ecuador Research and Development Unit
For three decades the disease known as bud rot (BR), has been a major problem in extensive oil palm growing areas of Latin America.
Introduction
So far, the onset of BR has been associated with a number of pathogens, mainly Phythopthora palmivora (Cenipalma – Colombia) disease and Fusarium oxysporum sp.
In the 80s, we began to notice that the hybrid of Elaeis guineensis with E. oleifera, could be an alternative planting material, with tolerance to BR and other lethal diseases of oil palm in the region.
agree that there is great genetic variability in this species.

The oleifera species are found in all countries that have been devoted to the

Ecuador is one of the world's 17 most bio diverse countries in the planet, similar to Indonesia and Malaysia.
Genetic diversity is one of the biggest resources of breeders in order to find alternatives for specific health problems.
Palmar del Rio, lost 10,000 hectares in the 90s by BR and was the first plantation to received seeds of hybrid materials OxG at experimental and commercial level from EMBRAPA - Brazil and IRHO (CIRAD) – France.

Materials y Methods
1995 -1996 PDR received the first hybrid seeds OxG. 1997 - 1998 PDR planted experimental plots and evaluated for 10 consecutive years for BR tolerance, yield and
1998 - 2000 PDR Taisha
affected BR sites in order to evaluate its tolerance of the oleifera. 2002 - 2005 PDR makes first crosses OxG , we used Avros, La Mé, Yangambí , Calabar and Angola parents.
2004 - 2008 PDR planted and evaluated progenies OxG Taisha origin.
2007 - 2008 PDR carried out a new collection of E. oleifera in the region of Nuevo Rocafuerte and Pastaza (Ecuador). 2009 - 2010 PDR planted experimental plots with this new germplasm for selection of elites palms and OxG crosses.

Several of the OxG hybrids obtained from Brazilian and Central American oleiferas showed susceptibility to BR. In the order hand, the materials with higher tolerance to BR showed lower yields and reduced
The E. oleifera - Taisha has so far not reported losses due to BR of these palms, in situ disease tolerance is demonstrated.
This Ecuadorian oleifera has several desirable characteristics for OxG seed production programs, and for breeding through gene introgression programs in guineensis palms.
Reduced growth Good fertility, long peduncle
Morillo et al. (2010), mentions that oleifera is an important gene pool for the contribution to the competitiveness and sustainability of oil palm sector.

Agronomic characteristics of hybrid-PDR OxG Taisha as the male parent Avros, La Me and Yangambi. Palmar del Rio – Ecuador.
The best results in production and oil contents were obtained with Avros parents. These hybrids were earlier than those obtained from Brazilian oleiferas.
The pollination, an essential task in these plants, is facilitated because the female inflorescence at anthesis is free bracts.

With the information from the best progenies, we have made crosses between OTxOT Taisha oliferas, which in turn will produce F2 OxG hybrids. Our goals is to get 21% extraction at the mill.
Quality Oil hybrids OxG - PDR -Taisha
The Taisha hybrid oil is high oleic when Avros, La Me and Yangambi parents are used; and when the guineensis parents are Angola, Calabar their oil is very similar to guineensis.

Conclusions The genetic diversity in OxG materials has allowed Palmar del Rio to continue with oil palm cultivation. We solved through breeding the problem of lethal diseases, specially But Rot disease.
The PDR-OxG hybrids are environmentally friendly as it is possible to plant at the same sites affected by lethal diseases with new varieties, and thus we avoid the deforestation of new areas.
Genetic variability allowed the development of new hybrids varieties and the backcross to ensure sustainability of the oil palm crop. We obtained with the OxG – PDR planting materials, disease resistance, low growth, efficiency for nutrient uptake , and oil quality.
