The analyses of yield data collected from 986 progenies of Indonesian Tall X Indonesian Tall showed their high production capability: 123 nuts/32.29 kg copra per palm/yr. Six of them produced 168 nuts/58.11 kg copra per palm/yr. Two families showed general combining ability and no inbreeding depression. They will be very useful for breeding for high yield of copra. doi: 10.4038/cocos.v5i0.2045 COCOS 1987 Vol.5 No.1 8-18
