Influence of Cadmium and Arbuscular Mycorrhizae on Growth and Chlorophyll Content in Theobroma cacao and Theobroma grandiflorum Plants

Advances in Agriculture
Inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) has important benefits, not only for plant growth but also for reducing Cd absorption in Theobroma plants.

Chromatin differentiation between Theobroma cacao L. and T. grandiflorum Schum [PDF]

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2009
A comparative analysis of mitotic chromosomes of Theobroma cacao (cacao) and T. grandiflorum (cupuaçu) was performed aiming to identify cytological differences between the two most important species of this genus. Both species have symmetric karyotypes, with 2n = 20 metacentric chromosomes ranging in size from 2.00 to 1.19 μm (cacao) and from 2.21 to 1.

Production of Special Fruit Beer With Addition of Cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum) Pulp and Prolyl Endopeptidase to Improve Volatile Compounds and Physicochemical Parameters. [PDF]

J Food Sci
ABSTRACT This study assessed the feasibility of incorporating cupuassu pulp and the commercial protease Aspergillus niger prolyl endopeptidase (AN‐PEP) in the production of fruit beer. To preliminarily evaluate the impact of the protease on the beer protein profile, one‐dimensional SDS‐PAGE was employed.
