Traditionally, dessert banana plants and local wild beach flora such as Scaevola taccada and Ipomoea pes-caprae were used as humidity-supplying green undergrowth for coconut trees, mixed with sea almond and sea hibiscus. [8], In the United States, it is a large-scale crop introduced for commercial use (second in net production quantity only to India), mainly in southern states, notably south Florida, and as a shade tree, along roadsides, in dooryards and in parks. Omani people needed the coir rope from the coconut fiber to stitch together their traditional seagoing dhow vessels in which nails were never used. [104] Other states, such as Goa, Maharashtra, Odisha, West Bengal, and those in the northeast (Tripura and Assam) account for the remaining productions. RESOWI, Universittstrae 15 SZ 15.22 (2nd floor, section G), Auch in sterreich stieg die Streikbereitschaft. Per 100-gram serving, coconut water contains 19 calories and no significant content of essential nutrients. The terms are derived from the Samoan language and was adopted into scientific usage by Harries (1978). Sorrel (Rumex acetosa), also called common sorrel or garden sorrel, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the family Polygonaceae.Other names for sorrel include spinach dock and narrow-leaved dock ('dock' being a common name for the genus Rumex).. Sorrel is native to Eurasia and a common plant in grassland habitats. Coconut meat can also be cut into larger pieces or strips, dried, and salted to make "coconut chips" or "coco chips". Studies indicate that if most of the population consists of producers, then scrounging behavior is favored by natural selection because there is plenty of food to steal. [87][88][89][85], The pole method uses a long pole with a cutting device at the end. These provide substantial circumstantial evidence that deliberate Austronesian voyagers were involved in carrying coconuts across the Pacific Ocean and that they could not have dispersed worldwide without human agency. [22][23], Whole mature coconuts (11 to 13 months from flowering) sold for export, however, typically have the husk removed to reduce weight and volume for transport. [50][51][52] Studies with scaly-breasted munia show that the intensity of aggressive encounters was highest when patch location was signaled, and the effect of changing resource density depended on whether patch location was signaled or not. People use tea tree oil for acne, toenail fungus, and athlete's foot. In Thailand, the coconut husk is used as a potting medium to produce healthy forest tree saplings. They are ubiquitous in coastal tropical regions and are a cultural icon of the tropics. In Australia, a Cocos-like fossil fruit, measuring 10cm 9.5cm (3+78in 3+34in), were recovered from the Chinchilla Sand Formation dated to the latest Pliocene or basal Pleistocene. [181], According to urban legend, more deaths are caused by falling coconuts than by sharks annually. Malauhog (literally "mucus-like") refers to very young coconut meat (around 6 to 7 months old) which has a translucent appearance and a gooey texture that disintegrates easily. FH JOANNEUM: HS 005 (Alte Poststrae 147, EG), 07.12.2022 [6] The flower is pollinated by insects. The fruit is best described as sweet and sour in taste, and is high in tartaric acid, sugar, B vitamins, and, unusually for a fruit, calcium.[14]. In the Philippines, the traditional tool is known as the halabas and is made from a long bamboo pole with a sickle-like blade mounted at the tip. Across the Middle East, from the Levant to Iran, tamarind is used in savory dishes, notably meat-based stews, and often combined with dried fruits to achieve a sweet-sour tang. [33], Further complicating measures to determine the evolutionary history of Cocos is the genetic diversity present within C. nucifera as well as its relatedness to other palms. The name derives from Arabic: , romanized tamar hindi, "Indian date". Its meat fills the entire interior of the coconut shell, rather than just the inner surfaces. The main coconut-producing area in the Middle East is the Dhofar region of Oman, but they can be grown all along the Persian Gulf, Arabian Sea, and Red Sea coasts, because these seas are tropical and provide enough humidity (through seawater evaporation) for coconut trees to grow. Um die verbesserte Darstellung fr Screen-Reader zu deaktivieren, besttigen Sie diesen Link. More recently, genomic analysis of cultivated coconut (C.nucifera L.) has shed light on the movement. Birds in a flock sometimes preen each other, with the soliciting bird usually showing its chin. The distribution of the Pacific coconuts correspond to the regions settled by Austronesian voyagers indicating that its spread was largely the result of human introductions. Coconut palms are hard to establish in dry climates, and cannot grow there without frequent irrigation; in drought conditions, the new leaves do not open well, and older leaves may become desiccated; fruit also tends to be shed. The shell, freed from the husk, and heated on warm ashes, exudes an oily material that is used to soothe dental pains in traditional medicine of Cambodia. 20:15, 17:00 [27][28] In Colombia, a single Cocos-like fruit was recovered from the middle to late Paleocene Cerrejn Formation. When the seed distribution made the scrounger tactic unprofitable, the frequency of hopping with the head up diminished and appears to support the predictions of the producer-scrounger model. There are two foraging alternatives: producers that make the food available and scroungers that steal food found by the producers. Mature fruits have significantly less liquid than young, immature coconuts, barring spoilage. Dr. Anna Riegler (FH JOANNEUM) im Rahmen der Ringvorlesung der 9 steirischen Hochschulen, Ort: Tamarind paste has many culinary uses including as a flavoring for chutneys, curries, and the traditional sharbat syrup drink. 20:00, Vortrag von PD MMag. In parts of Southeast Asia, tamarind is called asam. All of these introductions are within the last few centuries, relatively recent in comparison to the spread of Pacific coconuts.[50]. It was also one of the first plants to be spun into usable fiber 50,000 years ago. [176], The coconut is also used as a target and prize in the traditional British fairground game coconut shy. However their historical distribution was likely more limited. The tail flicking motion may have evolved from a locomotory intention movement. In 2020, world production of coconuts was 62 million tonnes, led by Indonesia, India, and the Philippines, with 75% combined of the total (table). Some seasonal variation is tolerated, with good growth where mean summer temperatures are between 28 and 37C (82 and 99F), and survival as long as winter temperatures are above 412C (3954F); they will survive brief drops to 0C (32F). Coconut timber comes from the trunk, and is increasingly being used as an ecologically sound substitute for endangered hardwoods. [1] The species occupies an extremely large range, and its population, while still unquantified, is large and stable. [179] In Maldivian folklore, one of the main myths of origin reflects the dependence of the Maldivians on the coconut tree. Seit 1585 prgt sie den Wissenschaftsstandort Graz und baut Brcken nach Sdosteuropa. [103], Coconut milk, not to be confused with coconut water, is obtained by pressing the grated coconut meat, usually with hot water added which extracts the coconut oil, proteins, and aromatic compounds. Coconut palms require warm conditions for successful growth, and are intolerant of cold weather. Bourke, R. Michael and Tracy Harwood (Eds.). Domesticated coconuts also have more amounts of coconut water. [5], The Monodora myristica tree can reach a height of 35 m and 2 m in diameter at breast height (DBH). The reasons why coconut are cultivated only in Yemen's Al Mahrah and Hadramaut governorates and in the Sultanate of Oman, but not in other suitable areas in the Arabian Peninsula, may originate from the fact that Oman and Hadramaut had long dhow trade relations with Burma, Malaysia, Indonesia, East Africa, and Zanzibar, as well as southern India and China. Description. A species of the genus Lonchura, it was formally described and named by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. The first involves either the male or female playing with nest-material. Its pollen is shed as permanent tetrads. Camphor (/ k m f r /) is a waxy, colorless solid with a strong aroma. [28] As the fruit matures it becomes sweeter and less sour (acidic) and the ripened fruit is considered more palatable. It is offered during worship to a Hindu god or goddess. Immature coconuts produce a sloshing sound when shaken (the sharper the sound, the younger it is), while fully mature coconuts do not. Though safer and faster than the climbing method, its main disadvantage is that it does not allow workers to examine and clean the crown of coconuts for pests and diseases. Seit 1585 prgt sie den Wissenschaftsstandort Graz und baut Brcken nach Sdosteuropa. [50][19][62], The niu kafa form is the wild ancestral type, with thick husks to protect the seed, an angular, highly ridged shape to promote buoyancy during ocean dispersal, and a pointed base that allowed fruits to dig into the sand, preventing them from being washed away during germination on a new island. Monodora myristica, the calabash nutmeg, is a tropical tree of the family Annonaceae or custard apple family of flowering plants.It is native to Angola, Benin, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria, the Republic of the Congo, Sierra Leone, Coconut water serves as a suspension for the endosperm of the coconut during its nuclear phase of development. [46] The treatment of tamarind leaves on liver HepG2 cells significantly regulated the expression of genes and proteins involved with consequential impact on the coagulation system, cholesterol biosynthesis, xenobiotic metabolism signaling and antimicrobial response. [48] Moreover, the presence of a competitor negatively affected foraging efficiency under cryptic backgrounds. [42], Scaly-breasted munias have variable competitive behaviors that allow them to exploit scarce resources. The coir is used to make brooms in Cambodia.[159]. It can be reduced further to yield coconut sugar also referred to as palm sugar or jaggery. The falling of their mature fruit has led to preoccupation with death by coconut.[4][6]. 20:00, [Sustainability4U] Vulnerable Gruppen sichtbar machen Chancengerechtigkeit nachhaltig gedacht, 18:45 Plants are intolerant of cold weather and prefer copious precipitation, as well as full sunlight. [167][168][169] Amphioctopus marginatus is the first invertebrate known to be able to use tools.[168][170]. [16] It grows wild in Africa in locales as diverse as Sudan,[16][citation needed] Cameroon, Nigeria, Kenya, Zambia, Somalia, Tanzania and Malawi. Das habe unter anderem mit Angst und sozialer Verunsicherung zu tun, sagt Soziologin Katharina. It is predominantly used in the bakery and confectionary industries (especially in non-coconut-producing countries) because of its longer shelf life compared to freshly grated coconut. [16], In hens, tamarind has been found to lower cholesterol in their serum, and in the yolks of the eggs they laid. [137][138] In the Philippines, sweetened reduced coconut milk is marketed as coconut syrup and is used for various desserts. [90], Determining whether to harvest is also important. [38], When foraging, scaly-breasted munia can search as individuals or search for others that have found food and join them. The 8-centimetre-long (3 in), glossy, pointed leaves are slightly rough to the touch and emit a strong lemon scent when bruised (hence the Latin specific epithet citrodoralemon-scented).. Sprays of tiny purple or white flowers appear in late spring or early summer, although potted IDM Members' meetings for 2022 will be held from 12h45 to 14h30.A zoom link or venue to be sent out before the time.. Wednesday 16 February; Wednesday 11 May; Wednesday 10 August; Wednesday 09 November The outermost bird often jostles towards the center. [10], Tamarind tree on the site of the founding of Santa Clara, Cuba, The fruit is an indehiscent legume, sometimes called a pod, .mw-parser-output .frac{white-space:nowrap}.mw-parser-output .frac .num,.mw-parser-output .frac .den{font-size:80%;line-height:0;vertical-align:super}.mw-parser-output .frac .den{vertical-align:sub}.mw-parser-output .sr-only{border:0;clip:rect(0,0,0,0);height:1px;margin:-1px;overflow:hidden;padding:0;position:absolute;width:1px}12 to 15cm (4+12 to 6in) in length, with a hard, brown shell. [3] Linnaeus specified the locality as "Asia" but this was restricted to Kolkata (Calcutta) by E. C. Stuart Baker in 1926. It was the world's largest producer for decades until a decline in production due to aging trees as well as typhoon devastation. 18:30, Roundtable Discussion: Making Democracy Work, Zu den Zusatzinformationen (Zugriffstaste 5), Zu den Seiteneinstellungen (Benutzer/Sprache) (Zugriffstaste 8). [11][12][13], The fruit has a fleshy, juicy, acidic pulp. [35], Individuals may also take advantage of group foraging by "joining" members that have found food. [102], Coconut flour has also been developed for use in baking, to combat malnutrition. [38][39], Tamarind wood is used to make furniture, carvings, turned objects such as mortars and pestles, chopping blocks, and other small specialty wood items. Hindus often initiate the beginning of any new activity by breaking a coconut to ensure the blessings of the gods and successful completion of the activity. 18:00 Thus, the costs of foraging on cryptic prey may be greater for social foragers than for solitary foragers. [180] In the story of Sina and the Eel, the origin of the coconut is related as the beautiful woman Sina burying an eel, which eventually became the first coconut. [119][120] Another method is to shake the coconut. A coconut (Sanskrit: narikela) is an essential element of rituals in Hindu tradition. It is best known for its colonization of cereal grains, legumes, and tree nuts.Postharvest rot typically develops during harvest, storage, and/or transit. It is also popular in Indonesia (where it is known as kopyor) for making beverages. Tamarind seed oil is the oil made from the kernel of tamarind seeds. Some cultivars such as 'Fiji dwarf' form a large bulb at the lower stem and others are cultivated to produce very sweet coconut water with orange-colored husks (king coconut) used entirely in fruit stalls for drinking (Sri Lanka, India). It is known as a bunot in the Philippines and simply a "coconut brush" in Jamaica. Several early medieval herbalists and physicians wrote tamar indi, medieval Latin use was tamarindus, and Marco Polo wrote of tamarandi.[20]. [23] It is cultivated all over India, especially in Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, Karnataka, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu. [27], The fruit is harvested by pulling the pod from its stalk. [145], Coconut sap, usually extracted from cut inflorescence stalks is sweet when fresh and can be drunk as is such as in tuba fresca of Mexico (derived from the Philippine tub). The leaves also provide material for baskets that can draw well water and for roofing thatch; they can be woven into mats, cooking skewers, and kindling arrows as well. 18:30, Active Citizenship and Innovative Practices from the Western Balkans, Ort: The cocoa bean (technically cocoa seed) or simply cocoa (/ k o. Browse our listings to find jobs in Germany for expats, including jobs for English speakers or those in your native language. Indigenous to Europe and the Middle East, the plant is now widely spread and cultivated in many regions of the world. Coconut trees also are increasingly grown for decorative purposes along the coasts of the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia with the help of irrigation. The heartwood is able to take a high natural polish. [11][12], Scaly-breasted munias are found in a range of habitats but are usually close to water and grassland. Once a bird lands close to its partner, the male bends towards the female and wipes its bill. [15][16], Outside their native range, escaped birds frequently establish themselves in areas with a suitable climate and can then colonize new areas nearby. Wild coconuts are naturally restricted to coastal areas in sandy, saline soils. Dried half shells are used as the bodies of musical instruments, including the Chinese yehu and banhu, along with the Vietnamese n go and Arabo-Turkic rebab. Only a few of the roots penetrate deep into the soil for stability. Wild coconuts feature an elongated triangular fruit with a thicker husk and a smaller amount of endosperm. Edwards based his hand-coloured etching on a specimen at the London home of Charles du Bois, treasurer to the East India Company. [102][103], Traditional areas of coconut cultivation in India are the states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Puducherry, Andhra Pradesh, Goa, Maharashtra, Odisha, West Bengal and, Gujarat and the islands of Lakshadweep and Andaman and Nicobar. (January 27, 1967). [151] Its chronic consumption may increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases by raising total blood cholesterol levels through elevated blood levels of LDL cholesterol and lauric acid. The fruit may also be damaged by eriophyid coconut mites (Eriophyes guerreronis). In Arabia, it is found growing wild in Oman, especially Dhofar, where it grows on the sea-facing slopes of mountains. [119][120], Maturity is difficult to assess on an unopened coconut, and there is no technically proven method for determining maturity. [49], Recent models of economic defence in a group-foraging context predict that the frequency of aggressive interactions should decline as resource density increases. [8][failed verification], As a tropical species, it is frost-sensitive. It was first developed for commercial cultivation in the Philippines and is used widely in Philippine cuisine for desserts, drinks, and pastries. It is produced as the endosperm nourishes the developing embryo. typica) and "Dwarf" (var. (2009). The importance of the coconut in Austronesian cultures is evidenced by shared terminology of even very specific parts and uses of coconuts, which were carried outwards from the Philippines during the Austronesian migrations. Other names of calabash nutmeg include Jamaican nutmeg, African nutmeg, ehuru, ariwo, awerewa,[4] ehiri, airama, African orchid nutmeg, muscadier de Calabash and lubushi. ", "Coconut anaphylaxis: Case report and review", "Guidance for Industry: A Food Labeling Guide (6. It is important as the main source of the spices nutmeg and mace. Competition intensity is expected to increase when more scroungers are present or when patches are smaller. Coconut palms are believed to be largely cross-pollinated, although most dwarf varieties are self-pollinating. [7] On fertile soil, a tall coconut palm tree can yield up to 75 fruits per year, but more often yields less than 30. It is most strikingly displayed in Madagascar, an island settled by Austronesian sailors at around 2000 to 1500 BP. A 100-gram (3+12-ounce) reference serving of raw coconut flesh supplies 1,480 kilojoules (354 kilocalories) of food energy and a high amount of total fat (33 grams), especially saturated fat (89% of total fat), along with a moderate quantity of carbohydrates (15g), and protein (3g). Tamarind kernel powder is used as sizing material for textile and jute processing, and in the manufacture of industrial gums and adhesives. : B.arenosella, B.atriloqua (feeds exclusively on C.nucifera), B.mathesoni (feeds exclusively on C.nucifera), and B. ), a tall timber tree from South East Asia.It also occurs in some other related trees in the laurel [74], The coconut palm is damaged by the larvae of many Lepidoptera (butterfly and moth) species which feed on it, including the African armyworm (Spodoptera exempta) and Batrachedra spp. Staminate flowers are arranged in groups of one to ten, each 57mm (0.20.3in) long; carpellate flowers are in smaller groups, one to three, and somewhat longer, up to 10mm (0.4in) long. [44] The presence of lupanone and lupeol,[45] catechin, epicatechin, quercetin and isorhamnetin[44] in the leaf extract could have contributed towards the diverse range of the medicinal activities. 17:00 The young coconut plants need to be nursed and irrigated with drip pipes until they are old enough (stem bulb development) to be irrigated with brackish water or seawater alone, after which they can be replanted on the beaches. [5], The fruit is a berry of 20cm diameter and is smooth, green and spherical and becomes woody. The adult has a stubby dark bill typical of grain eating birds, brown upperparts and a dark brown head. [11], True-to-type dwarf varieties of Pacific coconuts have been cultivated by the Austronesian peoples since ancient times. However, admixture, the transfer of genetic material, evidently occurred between the two populations. Die Karl-Franzens-Universitt ist die grte und lteste Universitt der Steiermark. These vary by the taste of the coconut water and color of the fruit, as well as other genetic factors. [183] The earliest direct description is given by Cosmas Indicopleustes in his Topographia Christiana written around 545, referred to as "the great nut of India". Many insect pests and diseases affect the species and are a nuisance for commercial production. Halved, drained coconuts can also be hung up as bird feeders, and after the flesh has gone, can be filled with fat in winter to attract tits. Chan, Edward and Craig R. Elevitch. [68] This figure has been questioned based on the extremely small sample size that forms the basis of the paper that makes this claim. [50], Coconuts can be broadly divided into two fruit types the ancestral niu kafa form with a thick-husked, angular fruit, and the niu vai form with a thin-husked, spherical fruit with a higher proportion of endosperm. As a social signal, tail flicking in several other species acts as a signal indicating the intent to fly and helps keep flocks together. Today, India is the largest producer of tamarind. [citation needed], Indonesia is the world's largest producer of coconuts, with gross production of 15million tonnes. [34] Blanched, tender tamarind leaves are used in a Burmese salad called magyi ywet thoke (; lit. 18:00 In medicine, the bark is used in treatments of stomach-aches, febrile pains, eye diseases and haemorrhoids. [2] When in 1758 the Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus updated his Systema Naturae for the tenth edition, he placed the scaly-breasted munia with the crossbills in the genus Loxia. The term "coconut" (or the archaic "cocoanut") can refer to the whole coconut palm, the seed, or the fruit, which botanically is a drupe, not a nut.The name comes from the old Portuguese word coco, meaning "head" or "skull", after the three The endocarp is around .mw-parser-output .frac{white-space:nowrap}.mw-parser-output .frac .num,.mw-parser-output .frac .den{font-size:80%;line-height:0;vertical-align:super}.mw-parser-output .frac .den{vertical-align:sub}.mw-parser-output .sr-only{border:0;clip:rect(0,0,0,0);height:1px;margin:-1px;overflow:hidden;padding:0;position:absolute;width:1px}4 millimetres (18 inch) thick and has three distinctive germination pores (micropyles) on the distal end. One recently selected cultivar, the 'Maypan', has been bred for resistance to this disease. [5], The odour and taste of the Monodora myristica seed is similar to nutmeg and it is used as a popular spice in the West African cuisine. [166], Researchers from the Melbourne Museum in Australia observed the octopus species Amphioctopus marginatus use tools, specifically coconut shells, for defense and shelter. Decayed roots are replaced regularly as the tree grows new ones. [43][44], Three hypotheses might account for consistent foraging specializations across individuals: food source variation, phenotypic differences, and frequency dependent-choice. Monodora myristica, the calabash nutmeg, is a tropical tree of the family Annonaceae or custard apple family of flowering plants. [24], The breeding season is during the summer rainy season (mainly June to August and also in October season in India) but can vary. Freshly shredded mature coconut meat, known as "grated coconut", "shredded coconut", or "coconut flakes", is used in the extraction of coconut milk. [71], Given that coconuts are ideally suited for inter-island group ocean dispersal, obviously some natural distribution did take place. [75], Brontispa longissima (coconut leaf beetle) feeds on young leaves, and damages both seedlings and mature coconut palms. The inner flesh of the mature seed, as well as the coconut milk extracted from it, form a regular part of the diets of many people in the tropics and subtropics. [152][153], Coconut butter is often used to describe solidified coconut oil, but has also been adopted as an alternate name for creamed coconut, a specialty product made of coconut milk solids or pured coconut meat and oil.[118]. [5], A study in 2011 identified two highly genetically differentiated subpopulations of coconuts, one originating from Island Southeast Asia (the Pacific group) and the other from the southern margins of the Indian subcontinent (the Indo-Atlantic group). He explained how at Guam "they eat coconuts" ("mangiano cochi") and that the natives there also "anoint the body and the hair with coconut and beniseed oil" ("ongieno el corpo et li capili co oleo de cocho et de giongioli"). [159], The leftover fiber from coconut oil and coconut milk production, coconut meal, is used as livestock feed. When singing the male sits in what is called the slope postureerect with the head feathers raised. Tamarind timber consists of hard, dark red heartwood and softer, yellowish sapwood. It can be used to make a wide range of products. Throughout Southeast Asia, the fruit of the tamarind is used as a poultice applied to the foreheads of people with fevers. Philippine and Malayan dwarf coconuts diverged early into two distinct types. "male" or staminate flowers and "female" or carpellate flowers are borne on different plants, although occasional individuals produce both kinds of flower. Seiteneinstellungen: Beginn des Seitenbereichs: (1992). [110] The production of coconuts is the main source of Sri Lanka economy, with 12% of cultivated land and 409,244 hectares used for coconut growing (2017). - It is used for cooking various dishes. Vigilance is greatest among solitary individuals and reduces as the group size increases to about four. FH JOANNEUM: HS 005 (Alte Poststrae 147, EG), International Lecture Series in Inter.American Studies, Ort: Nor were there coconuts on the east side of the African coast until Vasco da Gama, nor in the Caribbean when first visited by Christopher Columbus. Password requirements: 6 to 30 characters long; ASCII characters only (characters found on a standard US keyboard); must contain at least 4 different symbols; In Sanskrit, it is kalpa vriksha ("the tree which provides all the necessities of life"). [165] The smell of coconuts comes from the 6-pentyloxan-2-one molecule, known as -decalactone in the food and fragrance industries. It takes around 6,000 full-grown coconuts to produce one tonne of copra. Dried coconut leaves can be burned to ash, which can be harvested for lime. - [41][42] Due to a lack of available human clinical trials, there is insufficient evidence to recommend tamarind for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia or diabetes. For for the bucking horse, see. Gasa suggested, for lack of paper, delivering by dugout canoe a message inscribed on a husked coconut shell, reading Nauru Isl commander / native knows posit / he can pilot / 11 alive need small boat / Kennedy.[160] This coconut was later kept on the president's desk, and is now in the John F. Kennedy Library. It was also one of the first plants to be spun into usable fiber 50,000 years ago. It is mature when the flesh is coloured brown or reddish brown. [citation needed] They are also used in Hindu weddings as a symbol of prosperity. Seitenbereiche: Ende dieses Seitenbereichs. In comparison, mature coconuts with the husk intact can be stored for three to five months at normal room temperature . The underparts are white with dark scale markings. Hemp, or industrial hemp, is a botanical class of Cannabis sativa cultivars grown specifically for industrial or medicinal use. The use of coconut branches in corporal punishment was revived in the Gilbertese community on Choiseul in the Solomon Islands in 2005. When left to ferment on its own, it becomes palm wine. However, both James Cook and William Bligh[70] (put adrift after the Bounty mutiny) found no sign of the nuts along this 2,000km (1,200mi) stretch when he needed water for his crew. Dried coconut is also used as the filling for many chocolate bars. [99][100][101], Two important coconut products were first developed in the Philippines, macapuno and nata de coco. Seitenbereiche: Ende dieses Seitenbereichs. It has been suggested that individuals that play scrounger could also, by virtue of their head position, be alert for predators and hence contribute to antipredatory vigilance. Die Karl-Franzens-Universitt ist die grte und lteste Universitt der Steiermark. Linguistic, archaeological, and genetic evidence all point to the early domestication of Pacific coconuts by the Austronesian peoples in maritime Southeast Asia during the Austronesian expansion (c.3000 to 1500BCE). Coconut water can be fermented to produce coconut vinegar. 2,0004,000 adventitious roots may grow, each about 1cm (12in) large. Some cultivars are more drought resistant such as 'West coast tall' (India) while others such as 'Hainan Tall' (China) are more cold tolerant. When most foragers adopt scrounging, the time taken to discover new food patches is greater. (2015), however, suggests that their diversity in New Zealand indicate that they evolved endemically, rather than being introduced to the islands by long-distance dispersal. [146] They can also be processed to extract palm sugar. Thailand has been raising and training pig-tailed macaques to pick coconuts for around 400years. He used the English name "Gowry Bird". The coconut palm thrives on sandy soils and is highly tolerant of salinity. [27][28] The vast majority of Cocos-like fossils have been recovered generally from only two regions in the world: New Zealand and west-central India. The husks can be used as flotation devices. Escaped cage-birds established in the wild and such populations have been recorded in the West Indies (Puerto Rico since 1971),[17] Hawaii (since 1883[18]),[19] Australia,[10] Japan[20] and southern United States, mainly in Florida and California. It had earlier been described by Georg Eberhard Rumphius, among others. They also include fossil fruits that have been tentatively identified as modern Cocos nucifera. The major compounds found in the essential oil from the seeds are -phellandrene, -pinene, myrcene, limonene and pinene. This species is found in tropical plains and grasslands. [6][7] The genus name Lonchura combines the Ancient Greek lonkh meaning "spear-head" or "lance" with oura meaning "tail". Based on color and size, younger coconuts tend to be smaller and have brighter colors, while more mature coconuts have browner colors and are larger. Refine your search using one filter at a time [113], In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration declared that coconut must be disclosed as an ingredient on package labels as a "tree nut" with potential allergenicity. [24], There are two types of slope posture, a pre-copulatory one and an ordinary one.

Beginn des Seitenbereichs: The species is endemic to Asia and occurs from India and Sri Lanka east to Indonesia and the Philippines (where it is called mayang pakng). Especially immature coconuts (6 to 8 months from flowering) sold for coconut water and softer jelly-like coconut meat (known as "green coconuts", "young coconuts", or "water coconuts"), where the original coloration of the fruit is more aesthetically pleasing. It can be used to make a wide range of products. The fragments are dated to approximately 1000BCE, suggesting that cultivation and artificial selection of coconuts were already practiced by the Austronesian Lapita people. [6] The specific epithet fragrans means "fragrant".[7]. Coconut oil is also a main ingredient in Ayurvedic oils. [10], The scaly-breasted munia is about 1112 centimetres (4.34.7in) long and weighs 1216 grams (0.0260.035lb).

However, some populations are dwindled due to the increase of bird cagings. Its specific name flavus derives from the Latin meaning yellow, a reference to the frequently observed colour of the spores. [11] The fruit exhibits laxative effects due to its high quantities of malic acid, tartaric acid, and potassium bitartrate. This list of Latin and Greek words commonly used in systematic names is intended to help those unfamiliar with classical languages to understand and remember the scientific names of organisms. Ingredient Lists); Major Food Allergens (food source names and examples)", "How to Tell When Coconuts Are Ripe on the Tree", "When Are Coconuts Ripe: Do Coconuts Ripen After They Are Picked", "ICC Quality Standard: Desiccated Coconut", "Exporting desiccated coconuts to Europe", "Full Report (All Nutrients): 12117, Nuts, coconut milk, raw (liquid expressed from grated meat and water)", "Ginataang Manok (Chicken Stewed in Coconut Milk) Filipino Recipe! It is de-oiled to stabilize its colour and odor on storage. The sexes are similar, although males have darker markings on the underside and a darker throat than females. Inside the fruit the numerous oblongoid, pale brown, 1.5cm long seeds are surrounded by a whitish fragrant pulp. The heartwood in tamarind tends to be narrow and is usually only present in older and larger trees. It forms the basis of wedding and worship rituals in Hinduism. Based on these separate introductions, coconut populations can still be divided into Pacific coconuts and Indo-Atlantic coconuts, respectively. These allow the fruits to be more buoyant and makes it easier for them to lodge into sandy shorelines, making their shape ideal for ocean dispersal. Due to its density and interlocked grain, tamarind is considered difficult to work. - The Hindu goddess of well-being and wealth, Lakshmi, is often shown holding a coconut. https://dx.doi.org/10.2305/IUCN.UK.1998.RLTS.T33986A9820569.en, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Myristica_fragrans&oldid=1075824920, Short description is different from Wikidata, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License 3.0, This page was last edited on 7 March 2022, at 22:02. It has applications in furniture and specialized construction, as notably demonstrated in Manila's Coconut Palace. Nevertheless, the authors Gomez-Navarro et al. [83][79][84] Other manual methods to make climbing easier include using a system of pulleys and ropes; using pieces of vine, rope, or cloth tied to both hands or feet; using spikes attached to the feet or legs; or attaching coconut husks to the trunk with ropes. Many of the smallest coral islands in the Florida Keys are known to have abundant coconut palms sprouting from coconuts that have drifted or been deposited by ocean currents. It is claimed that they evolved to disperse significant distances via marine currents. Cocoa beans are the basis of chocolate, and Mesoamerican foods The coconut tree is the official state tree of Kerala, India. [1] The term "coconut" (or the archaic "cocoanut")[2] can refer to the whole coconut palm, the seed, or the fruit, which botanically is a drupe, that can be classified as a nut, even thou it is not truely a nut. [26] The song of the male is very soft but complex and variable, audible only at close range. The pedicel bears a leaf-like bract and can reach 20cm in length. Perera, Lalith, Suriya A.C.N. [72] They have been found in the Caribbean and the Atlantic coasts of Africa and South America for less than 500 years (the Caribbean native inhabitants do not have a dialect term for them, but use the Portuguese name), but evidence of their presence on the Pacific coast of South America antedates Columbus's arrival in the Americas. Due to its large and orchid-like flowers, the tree is also grown as an ornamental. [154], The husk and shells can be used for fuel and are a source of charcoal. [148][149], Coconut vinegar, made from fermented coconut water or sap, is used extensively in Southeast Asian cuisine (notably the Philippines, where it is known as sukang tuba), as well as in some cuisines of India and Sri Lanka, especially Goan cuisine. It is a haustorium, a spongy absorbent tissue formed from the distal portion of embryo during coconut germination, facilitates absorption of nutrients for the growing shoot and root.[143]. World Conservation Monitoring Centre. The discovery of this behavior was observed in Bali and North Sulawesi in Indonesia between 1998 and 2008. Grated coconut that is dehydrated by drying or baking is known as "desiccated coconut." It also plays a central role in the Coconut Religion of Vietnam. The Middle East's hot, dry climate favors the development of coconut mites, which cause immature seed dropping and may cause brownish-gray discoloration on the coconut's outer green fiber. This accompanies the palagip (prayer to the dead). Adkins S.W., M. Foale and Y.M.S. In botany, a tree is a perennial plant with an elongated stem, or trunk, usually supporting branches and leaves.In some usages, the definition of a tree may be narrower, including only woody plants with secondary growth, plants that are usable as lumber or plants above a specified height. A young, well-maintained tree can produce around 300 litres (79 US gallons) of toddy per year, while a 40-year-old tree may yield around 400L (110USgal). The tree grows well in full sun. [30] Tamarind sweet chutney is popular in India and Pakistan[31] as a dressing for many snacks and often served with samosa. [23][24], Scaly-breasted munias form flocks of as many as 100 birds. PETA later clarified that the use of macaques is not practiced in the Philippines, India, Brazil, Colombia, Hawaii, and other major coconut-producing regions. The haustorium absorbs the solid endosperm to nourish the seedling. [133] Coconut milk can be diluted to create coconut milk beverages. Indonesia also has a similarly sour, tamarind-based soup dish called sayur asem. In the Philippines, this alcoholic drink is called lambanog or "coconut vodka". [46], Furthermore, foraging birds may feed actively on the substrate or pick grains dropped on the ground and these strategies may be chosen according to the situation. They can be sorted mainly into tall cultivars, dwarf cultivars, and hybrid cultivars (hybrids between talls and dwarfs).

[50][51], Genetic studies of coconuts have also confirmed pre-Columbian populations of coconuts in Panama in South America. [54], In many areas it is regarded as an agricultural pest, feeding in large flocks on cultivated cereals such as rice. 1998. Coconuts can only be grown in temperatures above 18C (64F) and need a daily temperature above 22C (72F) to produce fruit. Beginn des Seitenbereichs: [19][50] However, they may have also been partially selected for thicker husks for coir production, which was also important in Austronesian material culture as a source for cordage in building houses and boats. [109] The artificial landscaping may have been the cause for lethal yellowing, a viral coconut palm disease that leads to the death of the tree. [28][29] Endt & Hayward (1997) have noted their resemblance to members of the South American genus Parajubaea, rather than Cocos, and propose a South American origin. The bird is listed as of least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Indonesia overtook it in 2010. [141][142] It can also be fermented to produce a jelly-like dessert known as nata de coco. [3] The name comes from the old Portuguese word coco, meaning "head" or "skull", after the three indentations on the coconut shell that resemble facial features. [113] Proteins from coconut may cause food allergy, including anaphylaxis. The coconut was a critical food item for the people of Polynesia, and the Polynesians brought it with them as they spread to new islands.[171]. [173] Irrespective of their religious affiliations, fishermen of India often offer it to the rivers and seas in the hopes of having bountiful catches. The nest opening is located to face downwind of the most frequent wind direction. Beginn des Seitenbereichs: Malauhog has a "solid" sound when tapped, while Malakanin and Malakatad produce a "hollow" sound. During germination, the embryo pushes out of the functional pore and forms a haustorium (the coconut sprout) inside the central cavity. Apical buds of adult plants are edible, and are known as "palm cabbage" or heart of palm. The branches droop from a single, central trunk as the tree matures, and are often pruned in agriculture to optimize tree density and ease of fruit harvest. For the ProRodeo Hall of Fame bucking horse, see, Geographical distributions of Indo-Atlantic and Pacific coconut subpopulations and their genetic composition (Gunn, Inferred historical introduction of coconuts from the original centers of diversity in the, "Grated coconut" redirects here. In the Malay language, it is pokok seribu guna ("the tree of a thousand uses"). Phylogenetic evidence supports the closest relatives of Cocos being either Syagrus or Attalea, both of which are found in South America. It has a crunchy watery texture and a slightly sweet taste. [60], Coconuts today can be grouped into two highly genetically distinct subpopulations: the Indo-Atlantic group originating from southern India and nearby regions (including Sri Lanka, the Laccadives, and the Maldives); and the Pacific group originating from the region between maritime Southeast Asia and Melanesia. Zur bersicht der Seitenbereiche. At night, the leaflets close up. It is occasionally found in the wild with its parent species. It has a clear trunk and branches horizontally. When stationary, the head-up tactic has been shown to be associated with antipredatory vigilance. In the Philippines, dried half shells are also used as a music instrument in a folk dance called maglalatik. However, like most palm fossils, Cocos-like fossils are still putative, as they are usually difficult to identify. New Relic Instant Observability (I/O) is a rich, open source catalog of more than 400 quickstartspre-built bundles of dashboards, alert configurations, and guidescontributed by experts around the world, reviewed by New Relic, and ready for you to install in a few clicks. Die Karl-Franzens-Universitt ist die grte und lteste Universitt der Steiermark. [48] They are now almost ubiquitous between 26N and 26S except for the interiors of Africa and South America. The pattern of specialization is expected to be stable although the number of individuals that use a given skill depends on the phenotypic composition of the flock. It is widely used throughout all of Mxico for candy making, including tamarind mixed with chilli powder candy. Um die Seite besser fr Screen-Reader darstellen zu knnen, bettigen Sie diesen Link. The coconut has cultural and religious significance in certain societies, particularly in the Western Pacific Austronesian cultures where it features in their mythologies, songs, and oral traditions. Malakanin (literally "cooked rice-like") refers to young coconut meat (around 78 months old) which has a more opaque white appearance, a soft texture similar to cooked rice, and can still be easily scraped off the coconut shell. Later, the endosperm matures and deposits onto the coconut rind during the cellular phase. A recently discovered palm, Beccariophoenix alfredii from Madagascar, is nearly identical to the coconut, more so than the queen palm and can also be grown in slightly cooler climates than the coconut palm. [85] Modern methods use hydraulic elevators mounted on tractors or ladders. The scaly-breasted munia or spotted munia (Lonchura punctulata), known in the pet trade as nutmeg mannikin or spice finch, is a sparrow-sized estrildid finch native to tropical Asia. They are petiolate and can reach a size of up to 45 x 20cm. Seit 1585 prgt sie den Wissenschaftsstandort Graz und baut Brcken nach Sdosteuropa. In Mexico and the Caribbean, the pulp is diluted with water and sugared to make an agua fresca drink. This pattern coincides with the known trade routes of Austronesian sailors. Indo-Atlantic coconuts, in contrast, all have the ancestral traits of tall habits and elongated triangular fruits. [22][23], Unlike some other plants, the palm tree has neither a taproot nor root hairs, but has a fibrous root system. Die Karl-Franzens-Universitt ist die grte und lteste Universitt der Steiermark. [21], The evolutionary history and fossil distribution of Cocos nucifera and other members of the tribe Cocoseae is more ambiguous than modern-day dispersal and distribution, with its ultimate origin and pre-human dispersal still unclear. However, they can be found in humid areas with low annual precipitation such as in Karachi, Pakistan, which receives only about 250mm (9+34in) of rainfall per year, but is consistently warm and humid. Specimens have been collected from the sea as far north as Norway (but it is not known where they entered the water). Because of their soft textures, they are unsuitable for grating. [117], It is one of the most useful trees in the world.[17]. [12][24] The nest is a large domed structure loosely woven from blades of grass, bamboo or other leaves with a side entrance and is placed in a tree or under the eaves of a house. Elzebroek, A.T.G. [126] These can be toasted or baked to make bacon-like fixings. It is still the largest producer of coconut oil and copra, accounting for 64% of the global production. [19] Dr. Johanna Muckenhuber und Mag. [135], Newly germinated coconuts contain a spherical edible mass known as the sprouted coconut or coconut sprout. The ancient coconut groves of Dhofar were mentioned by the medieval Moroccan traveller Ibn Battuta in his writings, known as Al Rihla. Seit 1585 prgt sie den Wissenschaftsstandort Graz und baut Brcken nach Sdosteuropa. If the scrounger tactic is compatible with antipredatory vigilance, then an increase in antipredatory vigilance should lead to the detection of more joining opportunities, and hence more joining. Coconuts could not reach inland locations without human intervention (to carry seednuts, plant seedlings, etc.) Cocos nucifera is a large palm, growing up to 30 metres (100 feet) tall, with pinnate leaves 46m (1320ft) long, and pinnae 6090 centimetres (23ft) long; old leaves break away cleanly, leaving the trunk smooth. Sri Lanka is the world's fourth-largest producer of coconuts and is the second-largest producer of coconut oil and copra, accounting for 15% of the global production. The species is dioecious, i.e. The tradition began in the 1910s, and has continued since. They forage in flocks and communicate with soft calls and whistles. De-husked coconuts are also easier for consumers to open, but have a shorter postharvest storage life of around two to three weeks at temperatures of 12 to 15C (54 to 59F) or up to 2 months at 0 to 1.5C (32.0 to 34.7F). But research on them is still ongoing to determine which of them (if any) actually belong to the genus Cocos. [175], The flowers are used sometimes in wedding ceremonies in Cambodia. Coconuts sold domestically in coconut-producing countries are typically not de-husked. [121] They can also be determined traditionally by tapping on the coconut fruit. Allium tuberosum is a rhizomatous, clump-forming perennial plant growing from a small, elongated bulb (about 10 mm, 13 32 inch, across) that is tough and fibrous. The genus Tamarindus is monotypic, meaning that it contains only this species. The phenotypic differences hypothesis proposes that individuals differ in their ability to use each foraging skill and stably specialize on the most profitable one. In the 16th century, it was introduced to Mexico and Central America, and to a lesser degree to South America, by Spanish and Portuguese colonists, to the degree that it became a staple ingredient in the region's cuisine.[18]. [0006EG0004] Hrsaal HS 06.01 Willi-Gaisch-Hrsaal, Universittsplatz 6, Erdgescho, 09.12.2022 Seiteneinstellungen: Beginn des Seitenbereichs: The edible white, fleshy part of the seed (the endosperm) is known as the "coconut meat", "coconut flesh", or "coconut kernel. This results in the naked coconut "shell" with three pores more familiar in countries where coconuts are not grown locally. Myristica fragrans is an evergreen tree, usually 515 m (1649 ft) tall, but occasionally reaching 20 m (66 ft) or even 30 m (98 ft) on Tidore.The alternately arranged leaves are dark green, 515 cm (2.05.9 in) long by 27 cm (0.82.8 in) wide with petioles about 1 cm (0.4 in) long. Tamarind (Tamarindus indica) is a leguminous tree bearing edible fruit that is probably indigenous to tropical Africa. [37] Some studies show that increased competition results in a decreased feeding rate. ", "Structure and Function of the Haustorim in Germinating Coconut Palm Seed", "Fossil fruit of Cocos L. (Arecaceae) from Maastrichtian-Danian sediments of central India and its phytogeographical significance", "An update of monocot macrofossil data from New Zealand and Australia", "A Fossil Coconut Fruit from the Early Eocene of Gujarat", "Long-distance dispersal of the coconut palm by migration within the coral atoll ecosystem", "Independent Origins of Cultivated Coconut (, "Ancient crops provide first archaeological signature of the westward Austronesian expansion", "Coconuts: not indigenous, but quite at home nevertheless", "An early sophisticated East Polynesian voyaging canoe discovered on New Zealand's coast", "Germination rate is the significant characteristic determining coconut palm diversity", "Deep history of coconuts decoded: Origins of cultivation, ancient trade routes, and colonization of the Americas", "Complete sequence and comparative analysis of the chloroplast genome of coconut palm (, The Coconut Odyssey the bounteous possibilities of the tree of life, Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, "Report: 26 provinces quarantined for coconut pest", "Coconut production in 2019, Crops/Regions/World list/Production Quantity (pick lists)", "Petenes mangroves: types and severity of threats", "Health of coconut tree climbers of rural southern India medical emergencies, body mass index and occupational marks: A quantitative and survey study", "Philippine coconut industry: No monkey business here", "The Chemistry of Coconut Milk and Cream", "New mechanical coconut climbing device developed", "A study on skills for trade and economic diversification (STED) in the non-traditional coconut export sectors of the Philippines". As per 201415 statistics from Coconut Development Board of Government of India, four southern states combined account for almost 90% of the total production in the country: Tamil Nadu (33.8%), Karnataka (25.2%), Kerala (24.0%), and Andhra Pradesh (7.2%). [34], The name coconut is derived from the 16th-century Portuguese word coco, meaning 'head' or 'skull' after the three indentations on the coconut shell that resemble facial features. Its name is based on the distinct scale-like feather markings on the breast and belly. The decreased buoyancy and increased fragility of this spherical, thin-husked fruit would not matter for a species that had started to be dispersed by humans and grown in plantations. [159], In World War II, coastwatcher scout Biuku Gasa was the first of two from the Solomon Islands to reach the shipwrecked and wounded crew of Motor Torpedo Boat PT-109 commanded by future U.S. president John F. Kennedy. Seit 1585 prgt sie den Wissenschaftsstandort Graz und baut Brcken nach Sdosteuropa. Hawaiians hollowed the trunk to form drums, containers, or small canoes. Studies show that these choices lead to a stable equilibrium within a group. Die Karl-Franzens-Universitt ist die grte und lteste Universitt der Steiermark. 20:00, [Sustainability4U] Vulnerable Gruppen sichtbar machen Chancengerechtigkeit nachhaltig gedacht, 18:45 Copra is the dried meat of the seed and after processing produces coconut oil and coconut meal. The earliest Cocos-like fossil to be found was "Cocos"zeylanica, a fossil species described from small fruits, around 3.5cm (1+12in) 1.3 to 2.5cm (12 to 1in) in size, recovered from the Miocene (~23 to 5.3 million years ago) of New Zealand in 1926. The hard green pulp of a young fruit is considered by many to be too sour, but is often used as a component of savory dishes, as a pickling agent or as a means of making certain poisonous yams in Ghana safe for human consumption. [96], The practice of using macaques to harvest coconuts was exposed in Thailand by the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) in 2019, resulting in calls for boycotts on coconut products. They provided a portable source of both food and water, allowing Austronesians to survive long sea voyages to colonize new islands as well as establish long-range trade routes. The pecan tree is a large deciduous tree, growing to 2040 m (66131 ft) in height, rarely to 44 m (144 ft) C. Myristiciformis (nutmeg hickory), and C. Cordiformis (bitternut hickory) is present in commercial pecan varieties grown today. [49][52][58] During the colonial era, Pacific coconuts were further introduced to Mexico from the Spanish East Indies via the Manila galleons. [21] While in the Philippines, it is called sampalok or sampaloc in Filipino, and sambag in Cebuano. In the Hainuwele myth from Maluku, a girl emerges from the blossom of a coconut tree. Laboratory studies have found that long day illumination and high humidity trigger gonadal growth. Allopreening is usually limited to the face and neck. The curry tree (Murraya koenigii), also known as karibevu, karivepallai, karivembu, karivepaku or kadipatta, is a kind of tree.It is found mostly in hot climates, and is a native plant of India.The leaves of the curry tree are called curry leaves or sweet Neem leaves.. Usually, curry trees grow to 4-6 metres tall, and their trunk grows to 40 centimetres in diameter. ; Batugal, P.; Bonnot, F. (2008). It can be used in liquid form as would other vegetable oils, or in solid form similar to butter or lard. ( / k m f r / ) is a tropical tree of the sits.
