Cacao domestication II: progenitor germplasm of the Trinitario cacao cultivar.

Heredity - 1 Sept 2003

Motamayor J C, Risterucci A M, Heath M, Lanaud C

Abstract excerpt

Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) has been cultivated in Central America since pre-Columbian times. The type of cacao cultivated in this region was called Criollo; cacao populations from the Amazon basin were called Forastero. The type of Forastero most commonly cultivated until 1950 was named Amelonado...
