Genetic variation in bioaccumulation and partitioning of cadmium in Theobroma cacao L.

The Science of the total environment - 1 Nov 2018

Lewis Caleb, Lennon Adrian M, Eudoxie Gaius, Umaharan Pathmanathan

Abstract excerpt

Cadmium (Cd) is a non-essential heavy metal that is toxic to both plants and animals and chocolates have been identified as a contributor to the human dietary Cd intake. One hundred accessions representing the various genetic groups and hybrid populations in Theobroma cacao L. held at the International Cocoa Genebank, Trinidad were evaluated for leaf and bean cadmium levels with three tree replications....
