Titre: Date Palm Abnormalities in Namibia and Niger

Résumé: Date palm cultivated in the Namibia date plantations is mainly originated from tissue culture. Plant material was sourced from different date palm tissue culture aboratories representing the two main techniques currently used in the production of date palm, namely organogenesis and asexual somatic embryogenesis. Namibia is thus one of the best places in the world where a study on the abnormalities related to the origin of the plant material and the technique used can be done. The aim of the present research is to summarize the main abnormalities observed on the field through several surveys and visits organized to different date plantations and nurseries in Namibia. Different cases of plant abnormalities are described and their origins are discussed in order to identify the cause of the described phenomenon. It appears obviously that there is an important difference between the behavior of date palms produced by organogenesis and asexual embryogenesis. For the same technique, the effect of the laboratory is also clear as well as the effect of the plantation or nursery management.
