Elaeis guineensis - Palmpedia - Palm Grower's Guide
Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is one of the most important oil bearing crops in the world. However, genetic improvement of oil palm through conventional breeding is extremely slow and costly, as the breeding cycle can take up to 10 years. This has brought about interest in vegetative propagation of oil palm.

Elaeis guineensis
Elaeis guineensis is a species of palm commonly just called oil palm (Khmer: ដូងប្រេង), but also sometimes African oil palm or macaw-fat. It is the principal source of palm oil. It is native to west and southwest Africa, specifically the area between Angola and The Gambia; the species name guineensis refers to the name for the area, Guinea, and not the modern country which now bears that name. The species is also now naturalised in Madagascar, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Indonesia, Central America, Cambodia

Oil palm is an unbranched monoecious plant that belongs to the genus Elaeis. There are two species of oil palm, E. guineensis and E. oleifera. Oil palm is unique in that it produces oil from the mesocarp (palm oil) and kernel (palm kernel oil). Palm oil is mainly used as edible oil as well as a viable source of biodiesel, while palm kernel oil
