New cultivars are released every year to meet market demands. However, in species with a
narrow genetic base, such as Coffea arabica, the cultivars are closely related and …

One of the greatest problems in Coffea arabica breeding is identifying precisely any inbred
line, based only on botanical and agronomical descriptors, because of the reduced genetic …

Genetic diversity of Coffea arabica cultivars was estimated using amplified fragment length
polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Sixty one Coffea accessions composed of six arabica …

Microsatellite markers (SSR) have broad utility in genetic studies due to a high rate of
polymorphisms, a codominant nature and multiallelism. EST–SSRs are markers derived …

Knowledge of the genetic variability among genotypes is important for the transfer of useful
genes and to maximize the use of available germplasm resources. This study was carried …

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers have been successfully employed to
analyse the genetic diversity among cultivated and subspontaneous accessions of Coffea …

Abstract Information about population structure and genetic relationships within and among
wild and brazilian Coffea arabica L. genotypes is highly relevant to optimize the use of …

The use of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) molecular markers has provided
advances in selection methodologies used in breeding programs of different crops, reducing …

The genetic variability characterization of the accessions of the germplasm collection, using
molecular markers, is being applied as a complementary strategy to the traditional …

Microsatellite markers, also known as SSRs (Simple Sequence Repeats), have proved to be
excellent tools for identifying variety and determining genetic relationships. A set of 127 SSR …
