Genetic diversity and relationships of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) in southern Mexico.

1998-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Neotropical tree crops are affected by a combination of biological and human factors that complicate the study of genetic diversity and crop evolution. Genetic diversity and relationships among southern Mexican populations and horticultural collections of Theobroma cacao(chocolate, cocoa, cacao) are examined in light of the agricultural practices of the Maya. Collections of cacao were obtained from the extremes of...
