Multiple Traits Selection Strategies: A Proposal for Coffee Plant Breeding

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
Experiments with progenies of perennial species such as coffee are generally affected by the heterogeneity of residual variances between information repeatedly collected in space and time on the same individual. In this study, we propose an index that considers the individual heritability of multiple traits for progeny selection and evaluate the ...

Sensory characterization of the Ethiopian germplasm of Coffea arabica L. conserved in the Colombian Coffee Collection

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
The sensory quality of coffee (Coffea arabica L.) has become increasingly important and is considered the best way to increase the competitiveness and profitability of the sector. Given the narrow genetic base cultivated, the use of its genetic resources

Description of an Arabica Coffee Ideotype for Agroforestry Cropping Systems: A Guideline for Breeding More Resilient New Varieties

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Climate change (CC) is already impacting Arabica coffee cultivation in the intertropical zone. To deal with this situation, it is no longer possible to manage this crop using industrial agriculture techniques, which has been the main strategy implemented

Use of Detached Leaf Inoculation Method for the Early Selection of Coffea arabica L. for Resistance to Hemileia vastatrix Berk and Broome

open access: yesAgronomy
Three hybrid populations (F1) of Coffea arabica were evaluated under field and laboratory conditions, derived from sources carrying the SH1 coffee leaf rust (CLR) resistance gene and the CX.2385 line, obtained from the Caturra × Timor Hybrid CIFC-1343 ...

Coffee pulp supplementation prior to breeding improves oxidative status without affecting fertility of primiparous ewes

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Ciencias Pecuarias, 2019
Background: Coffee pulp has a high content of antioxidants capable of modifying the oxidative status in small ruminants. However, high amounts for a prolonged time can reduce fertility. Objective: To determine the effect of two inclusion levels of coffee
