  • Fruit colour is a trait that affects the harvesting, and therefore oil yield, of the economically important oil palm. Here, the authors identify a gene that may control fruit colour in the oil palm and suggest that selection for this gene during early development could advance the breeding potential of this important crop.

  • The oil palm fruit ‘mantled’ abnormality is a somaclonal variant that markedly reduces yield; here, a genome-wide DNA methylation analysis finds that hypomethylation of a single Karma family retrotransposon embedded in a homeotic gene intron is common to all mantled clones and is associated with aberrant splicing and termination of the gene transcript, and that loss of methylation predicts a loss of oil palm yield.
