Coffee selection and breeding :
The principal sections of this review are entitled: breeding populations (with information on useful mutants and varieties of Coffea arabica and on C. canephora); selection criteria (including yield and its components, aspects of quality, resistance to disease, pests and drought and suitability for mechanical harvesting); reproductive systems and controlled pollination, with information on floral biology, artificial hybridization pollen storage, seed development and storage, and vegetative propagation); resistance to coffee leaf rust (Hemileia vastatrix); resistance to coffee berry disease (Colletotrichum coffeanum [Glomerella cingulata]); phytotonic effects of fungicides; selection for yield and quality (with information on heritability and heterosis); interspecific hybridization; and breeding strategies; seed or clonal varieties
