Oil Palm Biogeography, Biology and Cultivation. The genus Elaeis of the monocotyledonous palm family Arecaceae was formally introduced into botanical classification in 1763 by Nicholas Joseph Jacquin, who described Elaeis guineensis, known as African oil palm.The Greek word “ελαιoυ”—oil, transliterated “elaion,” gave the genus name (Hartley, 1977).

Oil palm is the most productive oil crop and the efficiency of pollination has a direct impact on the yield of oil. Pollination by wind can occur but maximal pollination is mediated by the weevil E. kamerunicus. These weevils complete their life cycle by feeding on male flowers. Attraction of weevils to oil palm flowers is due to the emission of methylchavicol by both male and female flowers ...
