Cultivated Robusta coffee meets wild <i>Coffea canephora</i> : Evidence of cultivated-wild hybridisation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo

2023-11-01

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background and aims</h4> Plant breeders are increasingly turning to crop wild relatives (CWRs) to ensure global food security amidst a rapidly changing environment. However, CWR populations are confronted with various human-induced threats, including hybridisation with their nearby cultivated crops, posing a significant threat to the wild gene pool. Here, we focussed on Robusta coffee in the Yangambi region i...
