Adaptive genetic variation for climate-resilient breeding in cacao (Theobroma cacao L.)

2025-11-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Breeding abiotic stress tolerance in tropical perennial crops is essential as weather conditions are becoming more erratic due to climate change. Cacao is a very valuable global commodity cultivated in West Africa, Asia, and Latin America but its production is vulnerable due to persistent diseases and reduced water availability for farming. Cacao wild populations as a result of continue...
