Molecular biology in support of Arabica coffee genetic improvement. - (:unkn) unknown (My University)
The application of molecular techniques, such as RAPD analyses and RFLP markers, to the genetic improvement of Coffea arabica is outlined. Isoenzyme and RAPD analysis have contributed to evaluating genetic diversity and defining related groups to aid the selection of crossing material. RFLP markers have aided the study of Coffea phylogeny and the identification of genetic markers linked to desirable traits.
