Contrasting Embryogenic Trajectories Reveal Spatial Control as a Key Determinant of Embryogenic Competence in Theobroma cacao L. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
ABSTRACT Somatic embryogenesis (SE) in Theobroma cacao is a micropropagation technique of great importance but remains constrained by genotype recalcitrance. The cellular and molecular mechanisms distinguishing regenerative from non‐regenerative responses remain poorly understood.

The Moniliophthora roreri Effector MrB1 Affects Cellular Homeostasis and Induces Genotype-Dependent Necrosis in Theobroma cacao. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol
The effector MrB1 induces cytotoxicity in plant cells through oxidative stress, membrane damage, protein folding collapse, and energy failure. These alterations compromise cellular integrity and result in necrosis. ABSTRACT Frosty pod rot (FPR) is an invasive disease responsible for severe yield losses of cacao trees.

Phenotypic, physicochemical, sensory, and functional attributes of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) from Brazilian Amazonian floodplain and upland ecosystems. [PDF]

J Sci Food Agric
Abstract BACKGROUND Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) from the Brazilian Amazon plays an important role in national production. While most cocoa is cultivated in upland systems, floodplain ecosystems represent a traditional and distinct production environment that may influence bean composition and quality.
