  abstract = {{C}oconut is both socially and economically important crop in tropical and subtropical countries, thus the conservation of existing diversity of its germplasm is vital to maintain biodiversity, sustain crop production and utilisation of germplasm for crop improvement strategies. {T}he recalcitrant storage behavior and large size of the coconut seed make it impossible to use as a germplasm storage material. {C}ryopreservation is an ideal means of long-term storage of germplasm which offers long-term storage capability with minimal storage space and maintenance requirements. {T}he coconut embryo has been now adapted by various researchers for the purpose of germplasm exchange and it is now being routinely applied in germplasm collection and exchange activities with sufficient germination rates. {T}he aim of the present study was to determine the effect of different coconut embryo transport/ storage methods [as solid endosperm plugs under cold temperature, embryos cultured in {S}olidified {A}gar {M}edium ({SAM}) or {KCI} solution under room temperature] on cryopreservation of plumules using encapsulation/dehydration method. {T}he results revealed that plumules excised from embryos transported/stored in {SAM} and pretreated with 1.0{M} sucrose could by cryopreserved with 71.8% survival and 56% recovery rates. {T}he survival and recovery could be further increased up to 77.5% and 65% respectively by supplementation of 1.0{M} sucrose with 20 µ{M} {ABA}.},
