Parental assigned chromosomes for cultivated cacao provides insights into genetic architecture underlying resistance to vascular streak dieback
2024-05-31
Abstract excerpt
Diseases of Theobroma cacao disrupt cocoa bean supply and have economic impacts to growers. Vascular streak dieback (VSD), caused by Ceratobasidium theobromae , is a new encounter disease of cacao currently contained to southeast Asia and Melanesia. Resistance to VSD has been tested with large progeny trials in Sulawesi and Papua New Guinea with the identification of informative quantitative trait loci (QTL). Us...
